The first section following the file header is Signal Properties. It contains the signal properties located in the Pulse Building Pattern Library form in the Pattern Details area's Advanced view. The Signal Properties section must begin with the keyword SIGNAL_PROPERTIES_BEGIN and end with the keyword SIGNAL_PROPERTIES_END. The signal properties include the following:
Frequency_MHz |
Frequency_Offset_MHz |
Amplitude_dBm |
Amplitude_Offset_dBm |
Mirror_Spectrum_OnOff |
Pulse_Modulator_OnOff |
ALC_Hold_Line_OnOfff |
ALC_Enable |
Attenuation_Hold_OnOff |
Attenuation_Level_dB |
ALC_Level_dBm |
Auto_Sampling_Rate_OnOff |
Sampling_Rate_MHz |
External_Clock_OnOff |
Auto_Alias_Filter_OnOff |
Alias_Filter_MHz |
Auto_Output_Voltage_OnOff |
Arb_Output_Voltage |
Auto_Signal_Bandwidth_OnOff |
Signal_Bandwidth_MHz |
Auto_RMS_Voltage_OnOff |
RMS_Voltage |
Trigger_Mode |
Trigger_Source |
Trigger_Polarity |
Trigger_Delay_us |
Trigger_Level |
Event1 |
Event2 |
Event3 |
As shown in this example of a CSV file's Signal Properties section, the individually listed properties appear on separate lines between the keywords. The property names are listed in the first column and their associated values are listed in the next column. Property names must be labeled correctly.
Unless stated otherwise, all frequency values are in MHz, all time values are in micro-seconds, and all phase values are in degrees.
