Basic Digital Operation
Using Waveform Markers
Viewing Waveform Segment Markers
Markers are applied to waveform segments. Use the following steps to view the markers set for a segment
(this example uses the factory-supplied segment, SINE_TEST_WFM).
1. In the Marker Utilities menu (page 134), press
Set Markers.
2. Highlight the desired waveform segment. In an ARB format such as Custom Arb Waveform Generator,
there is only one file (AUTOGEN_WAVEFORM) and it is highlighted.
3. Press
Display Markers > Zoom in Max. The maximum zoom in range is 28 points.
Experiment with the Zoom functions to see how they display the markers.
The display can show a maximum of 460 points; displayed waveforms with a sample point range greater
than 460 points may not show the marker locations.
