Hello community,
I am a newbie to Benchvue software and Test Flow. It would be of great help if any one can help me with the following question. Thanks.
I am trying to create a Test Flow sequence with a function generator and the flow of execution should be as follows:
step 1:
amplitude A1
frequency f1
Step 2:
amplitude A2
frequency f2
.
.
.
.
Step n:
amplitude An
frequency fn
As one can see, for each step, I have a different amplitude and frequency. If one of them is constant, I can easily put the other in a list and run the test flow sequence.
But my requirement is to have different amplitude and frequency for each step and there are multiple number of steps.
Is there a programmatic way to do this?
Thanks and regards,
Raj
Here is how to do this. Create two variables, v (voltage) and f (frequency). Use the math function to add to these as appropriate. Put them in a loop. Drag the set amplitude and set frequency blocks over. Make sure the instrument is in the desired function before dragging the frequency block over. There's a bug in Test Flow that will cause the set frequency block to set the arb frequency instead of the sine frequency if it is in arb mode when you first drag over the frequency block, and even changing it to sine won't fix it.
