COMMON PRACTICES
5-1-6 GENERATING RF SIGNAL USING EXTERNAL MODULATION
This procedure configures the RF Generate Operation Screen to transmit an RF Signal
FM Modulated with 1 kHz External Modulation Source.
The deviation is set at 5 kHz by adjusting the input level of the Modulation
Signal.
The Output Level is -50 dBm.

o Connect External Modulation Source to SCOPE/DVM IN Connector.
o Set External Modulation Source for 2.5 Vp. This setting produces 5 kHz Deviation
independent of signal shape.
o Connect External Modulation Source to EXT MOD IN Connector.
