The markers are enabled or disabled per your selections, and the changes have been saved to the
selected sequence file.

Viewing a Marker Pulse

When a waveform plays (

page 94

), you can detect a set and enabled marker’s pulse at the rear panel

event connector that corresponds to that marker number. This example demonstrates how to view a
marker pulse generated by a waveform segment that has at least one marker point set (

page 104

).

The process is the same for a waveform sequence.

This example uses the factory–supplied segment, SINE_TEST_WFM in the Dual ARB Player.
Factory–supplied segments have a marker point on the first sample point for all four markers, as
shown.

1.

Connect an oscilloscope input to the EVENT 1 connector, and trigger on the Event 1 signal.

When a marker is present, the oscilloscope displays a marker pulse, as shown in the following
example.
