1 Set up the burst carrier waveform.
Use the APPLy command or the equivalent FUNC:SHAP, FREQ, VOLT,
and VOLT:OFFS commands to select the function, frequency, amplitude,
and offset of the carrier waveform. You can select a sine, square,
triangle, ramp, or arbitrary waveform for the carrier.
2 Set the burst count.
Set the burst count (number of cycles per burst) to any value between
1 and 50,000 cycles using the BM:NCYC command. Used only in the
triggered burst mode (internal or external source).
3 Set the burst rate.
Set the burst rate (the frequency at which internally triggered bursts
are generated) to any value between 10 mHz and 50 kHz using the
BM:INT:RATE command. Used only in the triggered burst mode with an
internal trigger source.
4 Set the burst starting phase.
Set the starting phase of the burst to any value between -360 degrees
and +360 degrees using the BM:PHAS command. Used only in the
triggered burst mode (internal or external source).
5 Select the trigger source or burst source.
If you are using the triggered burst mode, select the trigger source
using the TRIG:SOUR command.
If you are using the external gated burst mode, select the external
gate source using the BM:SOUR EXT command.
6 Enable burst modulation.
After you have set up the other modulation parameters, use the
BM:STAT ON command to enable the burst mode.
