Ext 2 AC-Coupled
This softkey lets you input an external, AC-coupled, amplitude
modulation signal to the EXT 2 INPUT connector. The modulation
signal is tested for voltage and a display annunciator will report a high
or low condition if the voltage is >
±
3% of 1 Vpk.
The external 2 input has multiple uses, but can be used for only one
modulation at a time. If, for example, you were using the external 2
input in a frequency modulation configuration for
FM Path 1, and then
you configured
AM Path 2 to also use the external 2 input, the signal
generator would turn off
FM Path 1 and assign the external 2 input to
your
AM Path 2 configuration. (For the purpose of this discussion, the
external 2 AC-coupled input is the same as the external 2 DC-coupled
input.)

Ext 2 DC-Coupled
This softkey lets you input an external, DC-coupled, amplitude
modulation signal to the EXT 2 INPUT connector.
The external 2 input has multiple uses but can be used for only one
modulation at a time. If, for example, you were using the external 2
input in a frequency modulation configuration for
FM Path 1, and then
you configured
AM Path 2 to also use the external 2 input, the signal
generator would turn off
FM Path 1 and assign the external 2 input to
your
AM Path 2 configuration. (For the purpose of this discussion, the
external 2 AC-coupled input is the same as the external 2 DC-coupled
input.)

Immediate
This softkey is one of the choices in the AM Sweep Trigger menu.
Choosing
Immediate immediately triggers swept-sine amplitude
modulation in a continuous mode. To stop the sweep, choose a different
trigger such as
Ext, or set the waveform to something other than
Swept-Sine.
