Note: The maximum LENGTH allowed to be set for marker is 4000.
Below is an example to illustrate how marker function works:

**Changing one of the arbitrary parameters as start and length causes an update of the output waveform to the new
parameters. When exiting the Arbitrary Menu by selecting a different waveform, a message to save the Arbitrary wave will
be displayed. Select YES or NO to save the new waveform. This save functions the same as the SAVE ARB function.
3.6.4 Arbitrary EDIT Menu
Enters data for creating arbitrary waveforms. You can enter data one point at a time, as a value at an address, draw a line
from one point (a value at an address) to another point, create a predefined waveform, or combine these to create complex
waveforms. The valid data values range is -8191 to 8191. The valid waveform memory addresses range from 1 to 4,000,000.
The data value governs the output amplitude of that point of the waveform, scaled to the instrument output
