 In WaveForms' Welcome tab, open the Wavegen instrument, then click the Run button ({{:learn:instrumentation:tutorials:waveforms-buttons:waveforms-run.png?nolink}}) in the control bar near the top of the window to begin outputting a signal. With default settings, a 1V amplitude (2V peak-to-peak) 1kHz sine wave is applied to the Wavegen Channel 1 output pin. In WaveForms' Welcome tab, open the Wavegen instrument, then click the Run button ({{:learn:instrumentation:tutorials:waveforms-buttons:waveforms-run.png?nolink}}) in the control bar near the top of the window to begin outputting a signal.

-The //Data Logger// instrument can be used with other WaveForms instruments. Using multiple instruments at the same time is helpful in a wide variety of situations. One example would be to use the //Waveform Generator// to stimulate a circuit under test, the //Power Supplies// to provide power to the circuit, and view the response with the //Data Logger//, all at the same time. More information on how instruments can be operated together can be found in the [[reference:test-and-measurement:guides:waveforms-cross-triggers]] guide.+The //Data Logger// instrument can be used with other WaveForms instruments.

 It should be noted that the analog input channels cannot be shared by multiple instruments. When the Voltmeter is enabled, any other instruments using the analog input channels are disabled. Other instruments that use the analog input channels include the //Oscilloscope//, //Voltmeter//, //Spectrum Analyzer//, //Network Analyzer//, and //Impedance Analyzer//. It should be noted that the analog input channels cannot be shared by multiple instruments.
