Ext 1 AC-Coupled
This softkey lets you input an external, AC-coupled, frequency modulation signal
to the EXT 1 INPUT connector. The modulation signal is tested for voltage and a
display annunciator will report a high or low condition if the voltage is >
±3% of
1Vpk.
The external 1 input has multiple uses but can be used for only one modulation at
a time. If, for example, you were using the external 1 input in an amplitude
modulation configuration for
AM Path 1, and then you configured FM Path 2 to
also use the external 1 input, the signal generator would turn off
AM Path 1 and
assign the external 1 input to your
FM Path 2 configuration. For the purposes of
this discussion, the external 1 AC-coupled input is the same as the external 1
DC-coupled source.
