To Select Modulation Source

Press ModSource to select “Int” or “Ext” modulation source.

1. Internal Source

When internal modulation source is selected, press Shape to select Sine, Square,

Triangle, UpRamp, DnRamp, Noise or Arb as modulating waveform. The default

is Sine.
 Square: 50% duty cycle
 Triangle: 50% symmetry
 UpRamp: 100% symmetry
 DnRamp: 0% symmetry
 Arb: the arbitrary waveform selected of the current channel

Note:

noise can be used as modulating waveform but can not be used as carrier

waveform.

2. External Source

When external modulation source is selected, Shape and PWM Freq will be

grayed out and disabled. The generator accepts the external modulating signal

from the [CH1/Sync/Ext Mod/Trig/FSK] connector at the rear panel. At this

time, the “width deviation” or “duty cycle deviation” of the modulated waveform

is controlled by the ±5 V signal level of the connector. For example, if the width

deviation is set to 10s, +5V signal level corresponds to a 10s width variation.

To Set Modulating Waveform Frequency

When internal modulation source is selected, press PWM Freq to set the frequency

of the modulating waveform.
 Use the numeric keyboard or direction keys and knob to input the desired

frequency value.

 The frequency range is from 2mHz to 1MHz and the default is 100Hz.

Note:

when external modulation source is selected, this menu will be grayed out and

disabled.
