Hi, I'm trying to design a waveform from the Keysight BenchLink Waveform Builder.
I already have communication but show this error message:
-221, "Option 002 (arb) is not instaled" for cmd DATA: DAC VOLATILE
What can I do, I hope you can help me?

Hi, thanks for responding, is the Arb option part of the firware of the
function generator?
and update the firware to the last version published on the site wab
I do not know how to know if my waveform is greater than 8K points.
I attached a screenshot of the messages.
Thanks for the help.

Hi Merlin,
The 002 option must be purchased. The Keysight web site list the option at $422.
I clicked the post purchase upgrades link and it implies that you can get the Arb option and install it. I'm not familiar with the 33210 function generator but if it is like other Keysight products it may be a license that you install.
Your waveform contain 1k points as indicated by the number of samples on the bottom of the display.
Time = Samples / Sampling Rate. so Samples = 1000. I wasn't sure if kSa meant 1000 or 1024. The sample rate needs to be much higher than the waveform frequency in this case because of the all the harmonic frequencies needed to generate the triangular waveform.
Hope this helps
Pete
Hello, thank you very much for clarifying my doubts,
I think the Arb is a hardware that must be included at the time of purchase.
I will be left without that option
Thanks again friend

Hi Merlin,
Here are the instruction to add the Arb to your 33210A Function generator.
I'm pretty sure the Arb hardware is already there and is just enabled with a license key.
Hope this helps
Pete
Thank you very much for the information, I thought that the team had the
skills included.
I have solved my need, programming in a microcontroller. AVR
Tables with the waveforms I needed, basically program a generator.
Thank you very much for your kind help
Friend.

Hi Merlin,
The BenchLink software is trying to download your waveform to the Arb memory in the 33210A function generator. The error implies that you do not have the 8k arbitrary waveform generator option installed in your function generator. The option is:
If you have the Arb option installed in the function generator is your waveform greater than 8k points?
Thanks
Pete
