Quick Editing

AWG710&AWG710B Arbitrary Waveform Generator User Manual

During execution of Quick Edit, you can change the target area for editing, by 
moving the cursors. When you use one of the four VERTICAL/HORIZONTAL 
knobs; the general purpose knob and the numeric keys remain assigned to change 
the value. To move a cursor, press the TOGGLE button on the front–panel before 
operating the general purpose knob or numeric keys.

Follow the steps below to move the cursor:

1. Press the TOGGLE button on the front–panel to assign the general purpose 

knob to cursor movement.

2. Set the cursor position using the general purpose knob or numeric keys.

During execution of Quick Edit, you can combine the four VERTICAL and 
HORIZONTAL knobs and the general purpose knob for the operation purpose. 
Each time you operate any of the knobs, the following internal calculation is made 
to renew the waveform data:

„

The cursor–to–cursor data is defined as the object of calculation with respect 
to the waveform that was obtained when you start Quick Edit.

„

Using the current Vertical Scale, Vertical Offset, Horizontal Scale, and 
Horizontal Offset values, the calculation is made in this order with respect to 
the cursor–to–cursor data.

„

Smoothing is executed.

The undo buffer is used for waveform backup, so the Quick Editor does not support 
the Undo! function. Before exiting Undo!, you are asking whether to reflect the 
changes to the waveform. To cancel the changes, select No.
