Channel Settings - Run Mode Tab (Modulation)

The Modulation Mode menu allows setting the trigger for the modulating
signal. Available options include Single, Continuous, and Burst.

Single

A

RBITRARY

When the Force Trigger command is given, the carrier signal, see
Advanced Waveform Editing (on page 61), is modulated with the
edited, modulating signal samples.

The last sample of the modulating signal is applied to the signal
carrier until a Force Stop command is applied.

DDS

When a Force Trigger command is applied, the frequencies (or
phases) inserted in the Modulation Editor are generated one after
the other for a time interval specified on the Durations field.

The last frequency (or phase) is repeated until a Force Stop
command is received.

The sequence can be interrupted at any time by a Force Stop
command.

Continuous

A

RBITRARY

When the Force Trigger command is given, the carrier signal, see
Advanced Waveform Editing (on page 61), is modulated with the
edited modulating signal samples.

Once the last sample of the modulating signal is reached, ArbStudio
returns to the first modulating signal sample until a Stop command
is applied.

DDS

When a Force Trigger command is applied, the frequencies (or
phases) inserted in the Modulation Editor are generated one after
the other in a continuous mode.

After the generation of the last frequency (or phase), ArbStudio
returns to the first frequency (or phase).

The sequence can be interrupted at any time by a Force Stop
command.
