Features

• Extensive compilation functions

Extensive compilation commands and command options allow a quick waveform compilation.
• UNDO/REDO

All compilation operations can be subjected to UNDO (return to a previous state) and REDO (advance to forward state).
• Online help

Not only command names but also a definition menu allows direct calling of command-related help.
• Japanese-language display function

Using the Japanese font function allows menus and messages to be displayed in the Japanese language.
• Event mode and cycle mode

Event mode and cycle mode are available. Event mode allows free compilation of each event (change point), while cycle mode allows representation of a combination of waveforms such as RZ and NRZ and pattern data for individual signals on a cycle basis.
• Non-graphic mode

The non-graphic mode not only allows interactive operations using graphic functions but also routine processing including initial signal settings on a batch job basis.
• User customization

Defining macro commands and various menus allows the user to set up a user-specific operating environment.
