Signal Generator Overview
Front Panel Overview
12. RF Output
13. RF On/Off and LED
This hardkey toggles the operating state of the RF signal present at the RF OUTPUT connector. The
RF On/Off LED lights when RF output is enabled.
14. Mod On/Off and LED
This hardkey enables or disables the modulation of the output carrier signal by an active modulation
format. This hardkey does not set up or activate a format (see “Modulating the Carrier Signal” on
page 34).
The MOD ON/OFF LED lights when modulation of the output is enabled.
15. Page Down
In a table editor, use this hardkey to display the next page. See “Example: Using a Table Editor” on
page 25. When text does not fit on one page in the display area, use this key in conjunction with the
Page Up key (page 4) to scroll text.
