Each waveform is color-coded by type throughout all charts and waveform diagrams. Blue = Sine, Gold = Square, Green = Triangle, Purple = Sawtooth. The same color is used consistently throughout our documentation.
The shape of each pulse is its waveform. A sine wave rises and falls smoothly; a square wave snaps between two levels; a triangle wave ramps up and down in straight lines; a sawtooth ramps up then drops sharply. The shape sets how sharply the field changes, which is what the timing measurements capture.
