Frequency-Shift Keying (FSK) Modulation

FSK “Hop” Frequency
The maximum alternate (or “hop”) frequency depends on the function
selected as shown below. The default is 100 Hz for all functions.
The internal modulating waveform is a square wave with a 50%
duty cycle.
• When the External source is selected, the output frequency is
determined by the signal level on the rear-panel Ext Trig connector.
When a logic low level is present, the carrier frequency is output.
When a logic high level is present, the hop frequency is output.
• Front-Panel Operation: To set the “hop” frequency, press the
Hop Freq softkey. Then use the knob or numeric keypad to enter the
desired frequency.
• Remote Interface Operation:
