3.2.3.1 EDITING WORKPOINTS

Clicking on the Edit button in the waveform Editor window opens a Workpoint Editor window. The
Workpoint Editor window displays a listing of workpoints for the selected standard waveform. Use
the Workpoint Editor window according to the following descriptions and guidelines:

Each workpoint value must be equal to or greater
than the preceding workpoint value.

The workpoints range is from the lowest defined
workpoint to the highest.

Successive workpoint boxes can share the same
value. Equivalent workpoints will share the same
wave shape.

Wave Designer selects the last

workpoint of equal value as the controlling
workpoint.

You can click on the related check box to lock (fix)
the wave shape variables for a developed
workpoint.

You can click on the Go Figure button to
extrapolate/interpolate fixed workpoint parameter
values for all non-checked workpoints.

When only one workpoint is fixed (checked), Go
Figure copies the workpoint (sets the wave shape
parameters for all other defined workpoints equal
to those of the fixed workpoint). This function
should be used just after the wave shape for the
first workpoint is fully developed.

When two or more workpoints are developed and
fixed, selecting Go Figure performs a linear
interpolation of the wave shape parameters
between checked workpoints and extrapolation to
unchecked workpoints outside the checked ones.
