Recall Waveform

Applied Parameters: None

Summary

This command is used to recall (or load) a waveform that has previously been stored.

Access

This command is accessed from the SimData Editor by choosing the Tools » Recall Waveform command from the main menus.

Use

After launching the command, the Recall Stored Waveform dialog will appear. Use the dialog to browse to, and open, the required waveform file (<StoredFileName>.wdf). The waveform will be recalled and loaded into the list of possible source simulation data waveforms for the active chart.

Tips

The possible source simulation waveforms for the current chart are listed in the Source Data dialog (Chart » Source Data). From this dialog you can create new waveforms to add to the list, edit existing waveforms, delete waveforms, and store and retrieve waveforms as required.
If a waveform is recalled that possesses the same name as an existing waveform in the list, the recalled waveform will be given the suffix _1. Subsequent recall of the same waveform will result in waveforms appearing in the list with incremented suffixes (_2, _3, etc).
The list of possible source simulation waveforms - that can be added to the active chart - are also listed in the Source Data region of the Sim Data panel.
