ABSTRACT:
A signal generator produces a signal. The signal generator includes signal hardware that physically produces the signal and signal software that is used to control signal hardware. The signal software includes a higher level object and a plurality of lower level objects. The higher level object processes an instruction from a user to produce the signal such that the signal sweeps through a plurality of frequencies. The plurality of lower level objects serve as an interface between the higher level object and the signal hardware. At least one of the lower level objects communicates with the signal hardware and at least one of the lower objects communicates with the higher level object.
