Deviation Limitations
for
each
RF
Frequency Band
You
can
determine whether
the
Signal Generator will select
a
divide band
or the
heterodyne band. Assume
an RF
frequency
of 30
MHz,
if you
select
a
deviation
of 3
radians,
the
Signal Generator will
use
divide band
4
since
the
maximum possible
deviation
for
band
4 is
3.1
25
radians (unless Special Function
8,
Prefer Heterodyne Band,
is selected).
If you
select
a
deviation
of
2 5
radians,
the
Signal Generator will
automatically select
the
heterodyne band. (Note that
the
maximum possible deviation
for
the
heterodyne band
is
1
00
radians.)
Procedures
Note:
Put the

$M

configured
to use
either
the
Signal Generator's internal modulation oscillator,
an external source,
or
combinations
of the two
sources.
