Creating and Downloading Waveform Files
Loading, Playing, and Verifying a Downloaded Waveform
NOTE When you copy a waveform file, marker file, or header file information from volatile or
non-volatile memory, the waveform and associated marker and header files are all copied.
Conversely, when you delete an I/Q file, the associated marker and header files are deleted.
It is not necessary to send separate commands to copy or delete the marker and header
files.
Playing the Waveform
NOTE If you would like to build and play a waveform sequence, refer to “Building and Playing
Waveform Sequences” on page 226.
Play the waveform and use it to modulate the RF carrier.
1. List the waveform files from the volatile memory waveform list:
Send the following SCPI command:
:MMEMory:CATalog? "WFM1:"
2. Select the waveform from the volatile memory waveform list:
Send the following SCPI command:
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:WAVeform "WFM1:<file_name>"
3. Play the waveform:
Send the following SCPI commands:
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:STATe ON
:OUTPut:MODulation:STATe ON
:OUTPut:STATe ON
