This is a read only setting. There are different frequencies available for all Avionics features and the waveform length depends on the frequency value.
Waveform Length calculation:
Check all frequencies applicable for the selected Avionics type. The value of the Waveform Length depends on the LCM calculations as mentioned below.
If all frequencies are integer, the waveform length is 1 sec.
If it is up to one decimal point, the waveform length is 10 sec.
If it is up to two decimal point. the waveform length is 100 sec.
More than two digits after the decimal point are not allowed.
Waveform Length must be integer multiple of the Period if COM ID is On.

The Routing tab provides Group and Signal settings that determine where the specific waveform of Avionics is played. The waveform file name will have a _G#S# suffix based on the routing configuration. So, you can specify different Group/Signal to generate/playback/edit this waveform.
Assign the signal group number.

The lower pane (graph view) displays three different representations of the generated waveform:
IQ - Provides the following three different plots to customize the display of generated IQ data on the graph:
Power - The Power menu selection displays the overall IQ waveform power.
I Plus Q - The I Plus Q menu selection displays I + Q combined power.
I And Q - The I And Q menu selection displays I and Q power separately.
Spectrum - Displays the waveform spectrum (power vs. frequency).
CCDF - Displays the probability (in percentage) that the generated waveform's calculated peak-to-average power ratio (measured in dB) is greater than or equal to a specified level. The table to the left of the CCDF plot displays the calculated peak-to-average values for the current waveform.
The controls described below allow you to customize the display of data on the CCDF graph.
Reference - This checkbox shows/hides the reference curve (pink) that was set with Acquire Reference.
Acquire Reference - This button sets the current curve (yellow) as the new reference curve (pink).
Burst - Calculates the CCDF curve based on the generated I/Q waveform, excluding the off power period.
Waveform - Calculates the CCDF curve based on the entire generated I/Q waveform.
Changes to the waveform configuration do not update the graph until you re-generate the waveform. You can also use the colored indicators on the right side of the graph to toggle on/off individual plots.
