====== Pattern Generator - Test Case ======

===== Initial Setup =====

In order to proceed through the test case, first of all delete the Scopy *.ini file (saves previous settings made in Scopy tool) from the following path on Windows: C:\Users\your_username\AppData\Roaming\ADI .

Open the Pattern Generator instrument. The interface should look like the picture below:
