Quick Tips
The arbitrary waveform generator uses a setup file that has an extension AWG. Only *.AWG files are displayed o n the
Open File dialog box by default.
Once you recall a setup, the instrument retains the setup until you execute Save File or Save File As. If you s elect Save
File after changing the instrument parameters, the instrument setup file will be automatically overwritten.
Output status including DC O u tput becomes Off when a setup file is recalled.
NOTE. The AWG5000 series and AWG7000 series setup files are compatible each other. However, if the parameter
value(s) of an instrument setup file are out of range, a warning message is displayed. In this case, out of range parameter
values are set to the default values.
