  1. Hi @matde

    Yes, you can configure arbitrary (custom) waveform as carrier and AM/SUM and FM/PM
    With AD3 up to 32k samples for signal/carrier and ADP3X50 64k samples or 64M device buffered in play mode.
    The custom mode is intended for waveforms. Frequency is give for the entire waveform. It uses device BRAM and as carrier support FM/PM even negative increment/jump.
    The play mode is intended for slower data streaming, so this can't go reverse. For ADP3000 play is buffered in device DDR-RAM up to 64M samples, so it can run at up to 125Ms/s. The play can also be used as AM/SUM and FM/PM.

  2. Hi @s0890331

    The AD2 Wavegen device buffer size is 16k samples with the 3rd configuration. The imported waveform is scaled to the device buffer size. The application imports up to 64k samples, so you should scale down waveforms with external app or using the WF/Script tool.
    For more samples and lower rate you could use Wavegen Play, data streaming to device.
    AD3 is up to 32k and samples do not to be stretched.
    ADP3X50 is up to 64k and supports buffered Play for up to 32M samples with the device DDR-RAM at up to 125MHz.

  3. Hi @Zamokuhle

    Capture of DAC data is available with newer devices (AD3,ADP2230,ADP3X50)
    This is only digital data and it should mostly serve for informative purpose, specially at high frequency.
    The actual analog output signal and the signal received by the target may be affected by the load, wiring...
    Better use one scope channel to capture at target end and the other one at the reception. Like it is done for the Network Analyzer.
