Paths FM 1 and FM 2 are summed internally for composite modu-
lation. Either path may be switched to any one of the modulation
sources: Int, Ext 1, Ext 2. The FM 2 path is limited to a maximum
rate of 1 MHz. The FM 2 path must be set to a deviation less than
FM 1.

Paths

ΦM 1 and ΦM 2 are summed internally for composite mod-

ulation. Either path may be switched to any one of the
modulation sources: Int, Ext 1, Ext 2. The

ΦM 2 path is limited

to a maximum rate of 1 MHz. The

ΦM 2 path must be set to a

deviation less than

ΦM 1.

1. Since the internal modulation source operates over 0.1 Hz to 50 kHz, FM rates above 50 kHz must be supplied externally.
2. Refer to frequency bands on page 4 to compute specifications.
3. At the calibrated deviation and carrier frequency, within 5 °C of ambient temperature at time of calibration.
