ESG-D Series Signal Generator Instrument-Specific Error Messages
for FM1/PM1. This error will be reported to the queue when FM1/PM1 is enabled and
FM2/PM2 is also enabled and an adjustment to either FM2/PM2 deviation causes the
FM2 or PM2 deviation to be greater than the FM1 or PM1 deviation. It will also be
reported when FM2/PM2 is being turned on, and the last FM1/PM1 deviation setting is
less than the current FM2/PM2 deviation setting. In both cases the FM1/PM1 deviation
will be adjusted to match the FM2/PM2 deviation.
Settings conflict;FM1/PM1 value set less than FM2/PM2 value. FM2/
PM2 changed to match FM1/PM1 value.
The deviation of FM2/PM2 must always be less than or equal to the deviation settings
for FM1/PM1. This error will be reported to the queue when FM2/PM2 is enabled and
FM1/PM1 is also enabled and an adjustment to either FM1/PM1 deviation causes the
FM1 or PM1 deviation to be less than the FM2 or PM2 deviation. It will also be reported
when FM1/PM1 is being turned on, and the last FM2/PM2 deviation setting is greater
than the current FM1/PM1 deviation setting. In both cases the FM2/PM2 deviation will
be adjusted to match the FM1/PM1 deviation.
Settings conflict;Enabled mod source conflicts with previously
enabled mod source. Previous mod disabled.
The signal generator has three sources: INT, EXT1, and EXT2 that are shared by the
FM1/PM1, AM1/AM2, FM2/PM2, pulse (INT and EXT2), and burst envelope (EXT1
only). Each source can only be used by one of the modulations at a time. If a source is
being used by an active modulation, and a request for the source is made by another
modulation, the first modulation will be turned off, the second modulation will be turned
on.
Settings conflict;External burst cannot be on while using AM.
Indicates that there is a hardware conflict for the burst envelope using the EXT1 source
(I/Q menu) and AM1/AM2. The most recently requested modulation will be turned on,
the previous modulation will be turned off.
Settings conflict;FM & PM not allowed.
Indicates that there is a hardware conflict between FM and PM. The most recently
requested modulation will be turned on, the previous modulation will be turned off.
Settings conflict;Pulse modulation cannot be on with internal
burst.
Indicates that there is a hardware conflict between pulse modulation and internal burst.
The most recently requested modulation will be turned on, the previous modulation will
be turned off.
