Paths FM path 1 and FM path 2 are summed internally for composite
modulation. The FM 2 path is limited to a maximum rate of
1 MHz. FM path 2 must be set to a deviation less than the FM
path 1.

Specifications for Analog Modulations
1. All analog performance above 4 GHz is typical.
2. For non-Option UNJ units, specifications apply in phase noise mode 2 [default].
3. Refer to frequency bands on page 12 for N.
4. Parentheses denote typical performance.
5. Bandwidth is automatically selected based on deviation.
6. AM is typical above 3 GHz or if wideband AM or I/Q modulation is simultaneously enabled.
7. Peak envelope power of AM must be 3 dB less than maximum output power below 250 MHz.
