Configuring FM
Using this procedure, you will learn how to create a frequency-modulated RF carrier with the
following characteristics:
• RF output frequency set to 12 GHz
• RF output amplitude set to 0 dBm
• FM deviation set to 75 kHz
• FM rate set to 10 kHz
Setting the RF Output Frequency
1. Press
Preset.
2. Press
Frequency > 12 > GHz.
The FREQUENCY area of the display now reads 12.000 000 000 00 GHz.
Setting the RF Output Amplitude
Press
Amplitude > 0 > dBm.
The AMPLITUDE area of the display now reads 0.00 dBm.
Setting the FM Deviation and Rate
1. Press
FM/ΦM.
The first level menu of FM softkeys is displayed.
2. Press
FM Dev > 75 > kHz.
75.0000 kHz is displayed below the
FM Dev softkey.
3. Press
FM Rate > 10 > kHz.
10.0000 kHz is displayed below the
FM Rate softkey.
The signal generator is now configured to output a 0 dBm, frequency-modulated carrier at
12 GHz with a 75 kHz deviation and a 10 kHz rate. The shape of the waveform is a sinewave.
(Notice that sine is the default for the
FM Waveform softkey. Press More (1 of 2) to see the
softkey.)
