Register Icon

The Register Icon displays the current register length and tap

position values at the top left side of the dialog box.

Register Length

Specifies the register length. Set a value from 1 to 32 using the

general purpose knob or numeric buttons. The graphic register

image in the dialog box will change to show the number of

registers youenter.

Target

Specifies the location where the generated pseudoĆrandom

pulse data is created. Selecting Data replaces the waveform

data. Selecting Marker1 or Marker2 replaces the marker data.

If the register data has fewer data points than those in the edit

area, the register output repeats until the end of the edit area.

Do the following steps to generate a set of pseudo-random pulses:

1. Move the cursors to specify the edit area to replace with the pseudo-random

signal.

2. Push Operation (bottom)

!Shift Register Generator... (pop-up)!OK

(side).

The Shift Register Generator dialog box appears.

3. Specify a register length in the Register Length field.

The graphical register icon at the top of the dialog box redraws to show the
number of registers entered in the Register Length field. The value can be 0
to 32.

4. Specify the register tap position(s) by selecting the register graphic icon. Use

the

a or ' buttons to move the cursor to the desired tap position, and then

push the button to set the tap at the cursor position.
