3.10 Waveform Generation Through PWF 

 

3.10  Waveform Generation Through PWF 

An example using “On-Ph Ctrl Sine” is shown below as an example of waveform generation through 
PWF.  

 

Step 1:  Click the   button at the top left of the screen. The same result can be obtained 

when 

[Tools]

-

[PWF]

 is selected. 

The screen titled 

[YOKOGAWA ARB Edit - Parameter-Variable Waveform 

Create]

 appears. 

Step 2:  Click the   button to the right of 

[Function]

, and then click 

[On-Ph Ctrl Sine]

 in 

the list. 

Step 3:  Click  the   button  to  the  right  of 

[Parameter-Variable  Waveform]

,  and  then 

click 

[SlopeT]

 in the list. 

Step 4:  Either change the numerical value from 

[10]

 to 

[20]

 in the number input section to 

the right of 

[SlopeT]

 or move the slide bar to the right of 

[Parameter-Variable 

Waveform]

 to change the waveform. 

Step 5:  Click

  

OK

  

to close the PWF screen and return to the waveform display screen. 

 
Explanation 1: The PWF screen, the waveform is generated across the entire memory size. 
Explanation 2: Twenty-five different waveforms can be used with PWF. The number of parameters 

to be set depends on the waveform. See “5.5 PWF (Parameter-Variable Waveforms)”.
