Noise
This softkey lets you specify noise as the frequency modulation
waveform for the
FM Path 1 and FM Path 2 configurations. Notice that the
selected waveform applies only to whichever FM path configuration you
have currently selected.
Softkey Location:
FM/ΦM > FM Waveform > Noise
Ramp
This softkey lets you specify ramp as the frequency modulation
waveform for the
FM Path 1 and FM Path 2 configurations. Notice that the
selected waveform applies only to whichever FM path configuration you
have currently selected.
Softkey Location:
FM/ΦM > FM Waveform > Ramp
Sine
This softkey lets you specify sine as the frequency modulation
waveform for the
FM Path 1 and FM Path 2 configurations. Notice that the
selected waveform applies only to whichever FM path configuration you
have currently selected.
Softkey Location:
FM/ΦM > FM Waveform > Sine
Square
This softkey lets you specify square as the frequency modulation
waveform for the
FM Path 1 and FM Path 2 configurations. Notice that the
selected waveform applies only to whichever FM path configuration you
have currently selected.
Softkey Location:
FM/ΦM > FM Waveform > Square
Swept-Sine
Pressing this softkey reveals a menu of choices for setting the
swept-sine frequency modulation parameters. In this menu you can set
the start and stop FM rate and the sweep time. You can set the signal
generator to a single, externally-triggered sweep on either a negative or
positive TTL level or you can choose continuous sweep, triggered
immediately. In this menu you can also select either a positive or
negative polarity for the TRIGGER OUT signal.
