Same as B: The number of points of a mixed waveform is made the same as
the number of points of Waveform B. When the number of points of Waveform
A is small, it repeats until it becomes the number of points of a mixed

the number of points of Waveform B. When the number of points of Waveform
A is small, it repeats until it becomes the number of points of a mixed
waveform.
LCM(A,B): The number of points of a mixed waveform is made into the least
common multiple of the number of points of two waveforms.
common multiple of the number of points of two waveforms.

2. Use the general purpose knob or Wfm Len menu button to select the length of
a mixed waveform.
Update
Loading of the file in AWG mode sets data to the waveform memory for a
waveform output. On the other hand, loading of the file in Waveform Mixing mode
sets data to the work area for waveform mixing. When data is set to Waveform A
and Waveform B, preparation of waveform mixing will be completed. Based on
parameters of waveform mixing, a mixed waveform is generated in a work area,
and a mixed waveform is outputted in loading to a waveform memory.

Auto: When the file of Waveforms A or B is changed, or when a waveform
mixing parameter is changed, a mixed waveform is regenerated and waveform
data is loaded to a waveform memory.

It takes much time in order to generate a large mixed waveform. By choosing
Manual, it can prevent regenerating a mixed waveform at every parameter change.
