Configure the modulation parameters for AM, FM, and FSK.

• Select the modulation type.

• Select an internal or external modulation source.

• Specify the AM modulation depth, modulating frequency, and modulation shape.

•

Specify the FM frequency deviation, modulating frequency, and modulation shape.

• Specify the FSK “hop” frequency and FSK rate.

Configure the parameters for frequency sweep.

• Select linear or logarithmic sweeping.

• Select the start/stop frequencies or

center/span frequencies.

• Select the time in seconds required to complete a sweep.

• Specify a marker frequency.

• Specify an internal or external trigger source for the sweep.

• Specify the slope (rising or falling edge) for an external trigger source.

• Specify the slope (rising or falling edge) of the “Trig Out” signal.

Configure the parameters for burst.

• Select the triggered (N Cycle) or externally-gated burst mode.

• Select the number of cycles per burst (1 to 1,000,000, or Infinite).

• Select the starting phase angle of the burst (-360° to +360°).

• Specify the time from the start of one burst to the start of the next burst.

• Specify a delay between the trigger and the start of the burst.

• Specify an internal or external trigger source for the burst.

• Specify the slope (rising or falling edge) for an external trigger source.

• Specify the slope (rising or falling edge) of the “Trig Out” signal.
