Functions

UltraWave is the custom application software of DG Series Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator produced by RIGOL Technologies, Inc. Users can create, edit and manage waveforms through the powerful features of the waveform editor. We will give a brief introduction for the functions and features of UltraWave here in this section.　

Simple, intuitive and attractive user interface
The UltraWave interface is modern style design, artistic and refreshing. From the users’ point of view, for the sake of habits and easy operations, UltraWave retains the traditional operation mode of menu and toolbar which covers the frequently used functions, and the buttons are very concise. UltraWave blends a perfect combination of traditional and modern, is attractive and practical, intricate and simple.
As shown in the following figure, at the top of the display are the menu and tool bars, the left side is the standard waveform toolbar, the center is the waveform editing window, and at the bottom is the status bar.
Multiple Interfaces
UltraWave can communicate with the instrument through RS232, and USB (recommended) interfaces. Users can choose the interface freely as in need. Once communication being established, waveforms from DS series digital oscilloscopes or DG series digital signal generators can be imported. Users can also edit waveforms and send them to the generator and observe the waveform from an oscilloscope.

Abundant Graphic Drawing Mode
UltraWave provides nine standard waveforms to meet the most general needs of users. It provides capabilities of hand drawing, line (point by point) drawing and arbitrary points drawing thus make the generations of complex waveforms much easier. The multi-file management interface enables users to edit multiple waveforms. Moreover, UltraWave provides precise input mode for line drawing and arbitrary points editing, therefore users can draw accurate pulse, peak or jump to a specific time and point.

Powerful Waveform Processing functions
UltraWave provides powerful waveform editing and waveform operation functions for the applications in the communications and measurements.
