Setting Marker Polarity
Setting a negative marker polarity inverts the marker signal.

2. For each marker, set the marker polarity as desired.
—The default marker polarity is positive.
—Each marker polarity is set independently.
See also, “Saving Marker Polarity and Routing Settings” on page 35.
As shown on page 36:
Positive Polarity: On marker points are high (3.3 V).
Negative Polarity: On marker points are low (0 V).
Marker Polarity = Positive
When marker polarity is positive (the default
setting), the RF output is blanked during the off
marker points.
