Lets you choose which wave to edit, and how many waves this instrument should have. The numbers use base-0 to avoid confusion when using Vxx or instrument macros to call a specific wave.
[b]"and how many waves this instrument should have."[/b]
what's mean of this?

He's talking about [url=http://famitracker.com/wiki/index.php?title=Instruments]this page, under N163 Instruments.
N163 instruments can use multiple waveforms. This allows you to have an instrument that, for example, starts as a square wave and transitions into a sine wave, possibly over several steps. Suppose you set it so wave #0 is a square wave and wave #1 is a sine wave. Then in the instrument's Wave envelope (in the Envelopes tab) you give it an envelope of 0 0 1. This means it will play wave #0 (the square) for two frames and then it will play wave #1 (the sine) from then on until the next note.
The best answer for
"and how many waves this instrument should have."
is this series of pictures.
#1 Open instrument00 and click on Wave tab
#2 Click on up arrow on this box to change the number of sub-instruments that instrument00 will contain. This is the direct answer to your question.
#3 Click on this up arrow to change current sub-instrument to edit
Now, you can leave the other settings alone and you will have the same as instrument01. In this case, switch between sub-instruments using Vxx command.
But if you create a sequence in the Wave setting as seen in picture #1, then each of the values there will change the sub-instrument and step through those values once every 1/60th of a second (or at 60hz speed); it will automatically switch sub-instruments for you. But you only get a max of 16 sub-instruments per famitracker instrument.
I will also include an .fti instrument (created by forum user Zamual) where it shows the best use of the function to automatically cycle through sub-instruments.
It should be of note that the phrase "sub-instrument" is never used but we use "waves" instead.
It looks like you have been calling the same thing two different names and that's why you've been confusing yourself.
