Generating arbitrary waveforms using the Tabor WW1074. Also see the Tabor user manual (under 'IBEX Manuals' on control computer).

USING ARBCONNECT SOFTWARE:

Composers > Wave (brings up the WaveComposer panel to edit waveforms) You can create as many segments as you like here.

WaveComposer:

You need to use a combination of the samples/sec (found in Arbitrary/Sequence panel) and the 'wavelength' which defines the number of points on the horizontal axis. The wavelength box defaults to 1024 points in horizontal. So for a 1MHz sine wave with 100 points defined per wavelength, you could use 100MS/sec (in Arbitrary/Sequence) and then choose to use 100 points in the 'wavelength' box.

Note you can save a waveform and insert it into the 'equation' option.

For a multi-segment waveform: After defining each segment: -> hit 'DOWNLOAD' button to save to software

After defining all required segments: In Arbitrary/Sequence panel: Make sure the samples/sec is set correctly Select SCLK (internal clock) Sequence > Mixed Memory Management > Waveform Studio Close

In Main Panel: Parameters > Amplitude Function > Arbitrary Run Mode > Continuous (if that's required) Channel > (Choose your channel)

To run: Output Control > On/Off toggle USING PYTHON CONTROL COMMANDS:
