The plot shows a preview of the generated signals by the pattern generator. For the enabled channels, the generated waveform is shown. For channel groups (groups of one or more channels) a “decoder” is displayed and has the purpose to graphically represent the binary value of the channel group. | The plot shows a preview of the generated signals by the pattern generator.

Whenever an element in the channel manager is clicked, it becomes highlighted. The highlighted element has a darker tint in the channel manager and the associated waveform in the plot is enclosed within two vertical white lines. The highlighted element indicates that settings in the control panel apply to this element. | Whenever an element in the channel manager is clicked, it becomes highlighted.
