How to read this arpeggio

The chord tones are shown as pitch classes first. In the fretboard tool, square markers represent D root notes, while circular markers represent the remaining tones in the arpeggio.

Use the interactive fretboard to locate the D root notes and connect the remaining augmented chord tones across standard tuning.

This same arpeggio shape is also commonly called D Augmented Triad.
