Generating Waveforms Using the Equation Editor
3-73
Save Waveform As…
Use the Save Waveform As… command the first time you save
your waveform. It will let you select name, location and format for
your waveform file.
With this command you may print the active Waveform Window.
The standard printer dialog box will appear and will let you select
printer setup, or print the waveform page.
Exit
The Exit command ends the current FM Composer session and
takes you back to the Panels screen. If you made changes to your
waveform since it was last saved, make sure to Save your work
before you use this command.
Wave Commands
The Wave commands let you create waveforms on the screen. The
Wave command has a library of 6 waveforms: Sine, Triangle,
Square, Exponent, Pulse, and Noise. It also lets you create
waveforms using an Equation editor. Information how to create
waveforms using the Wave commands is given below.
Creating Waveforms From the Built-in Library
You can create any waveform from the built-in library using the
Wave command. Clicking on one of the Wave options will open a
dialog box. An example of the Sine waveform dialog box is shown
in Figure 3-54. This dialog box is representative of the rest of the
waveforms, so other waveforms will not be described.
Creating Sine Waveforms
Use the following procedure to create sine waveforms from the
built-in library. Click on Wave, then sine… the dialog box as shown
in Figure 3-54 will appear. You can now start programming
parameters that are available in this box.
Start Point Anchor
– Defines the first point where the created wave
will start. Note that if you change the start point the left anchor will
automatically adjust itself to the selected start point. The example
shows start point set at point 200.
End Point Anchor
– Defines where the created waveform will end.
Note that as you change the end point the right anchor will
automatically adjust itself to the selected end point. The example
shows end point set at point 499.
Max. Peak Deviation
– This parameter defines the forward peak
deviation. Note that the forward peak deviation cannot exceed the
pre-defined Deviation parameter as shown on the Toolbar. In case
you need to exceed the pre-defined peak value you must quit this
box and modify the Deviation parameter to provide sufficient range
for the forward peak deviation range.
