The phase relationship between the slave and the master is set independently for each channel
from the carrier wave menus, see the Continuous Carrier Waveform Operations section. The phase
may be changed in either of the ways detailed in General: Numeric Editing.
The convention adopted for the phase relationship between generators is that a positive phase
setting advances the slave generator with respect to the master and a negative setting delays the
slave generator. Phase changes on either generator will not cause a loss of synchronisation.
Hardware delays become increasingly significant as the frequency increases, causing additional
phase delay between the master and slave. However, these delays can be largely nulled−out by
‘backing−off’ the phase settings of the slave.
Resynchronising
If the frequency value of either the master or the slave are changed it will be necessary to
resynchronise the generators. This may be done by pressing the
Align soft-key on either
channel of either generator.
