Creating Sequence Steps

Setting Starting phase or Ending phase to FIXED will cause phase wait time to be inserted in the
sequence.
The PCR-LE panel shows the next step during a phase wait time, but the elapsed time remains
at 0 until the next step is actually started.
For example, during the phase wait time after the execution of step n-1, the PCR-LE panel will
show step n.
The status signal is output while the waveform of the step whose status signal is set to on is being
output.

Be careful if you want to output signals continuously (without sudden phase changes). For example, if you set the starting phase angle of step n and the ending phase angle of the previous
step (n-1), the phase wait time between the completion of step n-1 and the start of step n may
be as long as one period. To prevent this sort of confusion, we recommend that you set only
the starting phase angle if you want to output steps continuously.
If you set sudden phase change to on, the starting phase of the step and the ending phase of
the previous step are automatically set to FIXED, and the phase will make a sudden change.
For example, if you set sudden phase change of step n to on, the starting phase of step n and the
ending phase of the previous step (n-1) are automatically set to FIXED, and the phase will make a
sudden change. If you set the starting phase angle of step n to 270° and the ending phase angle of
step n-1 to 90°, when the execution of step n-1 finishes and the phase angle reaches 90°, the execution of step n will begin immediately.
