To Set Modulating Waveform Frequency
When internal modulation source is selected, press AM_Freq to set the modulating
waveform frequency.
 Input the desired frequency value using the numeric keyboard or knob.
 The modulating waveform frequency ranges from 2 mHz to 50 kHz, and the
default value is 100 Hz.
Note: This menu will be grayed out and disabled when external modulation source is
selected.
To Set Modulation Depth
Modulation depth expressed as a percentage indicates the amplitude vibration degree.
The AM modulation depth ranges from 0% to 120%. Press AM Depth to set AM
modulation depth.
 When the modulation depth is 0%, the output amplitude is the half of the
specified value.
 When the modulation depth is 100%, the output amplitude is equal to the
specified value.
 When the modulation depth is higher than 100%, the output of the instrument
will not exceed 10 Vpp (The load is 50 Ω).
When external source is selected, AM modulation amplitude is also controlled by the
±6 V signal level of the Mod in/I connector at the rear panel. For example, if the
modulation depth is 100%, the output amplitude is the maximum when the
modulating signal level is +6 V and the minimum when the level is -6 V.
