arbitrary waveforms, pattern output provides five built-in patterns and
up to four user-defined patterns that are stored in non-volatile memory.
The built-in patterns are exponential-rise, exponential-fall,
negative-ramp, sinc, and cardiac. The default pattern output is an
exponential-rise wave.

User-defined patterns
Model 645 supports user-defined patterns. You may use the Wavepatt
waveform and pattern editor to create the patterns you want or import
the waveforms from the oscilloscope that you captured previously. For
more information on the user-defined patterns, please refer to the
on-line help of Wavepatt.
