Front Panel Display
1. Active Function Area
This area displays the currently active function. For example, if frequency is the active function, the
current frequency setting appears. If the currently active function has an increment value
associated with it, that value also appears.
2. Frequency Area
This area displays the current frequency setting.
3. Annunciators
Annunciators show the status of some of the signal generator functions, and indicate error
conditions. An annunciator position may be used by more than one annunciator; in this case, only
one of the functions sharing a given position can be active at a given time.
This annunciator appears when...
ΦM Phase modulation is on. If you turn frequency modulation on, the FM annunciator replaces ΦM.
ARB The ARB generator is on. ARB is running and not waiting on a trigger.
ALC OFF The ALC circuit is disabled.
—The UNLEVEL annunciator appears in the same position if the ALC is enabled and is unable
to maintain the output level.
—The FADING annunciator appears in the same position if Real-Time Fading is enabled.
The FPASS annunciator appears in the same position if the Fader is in Pass-Through mode.
See “Using Real-Time Fading Softkeys” on page338.
AM Amplitude modulation is on.
ARMED A sweep has been initiated and the signal generator is waiting for the sweep trigger event.
ATTNHOLD The attenuator hold function is on. When this function is on, the attenuator is held at its current setting.
AWGN Real-Time I/Q Baseband Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) is on.
BERT BERT Baseband Operating Mode is on. The annunciator goes away when N5102A or Primary mode is selected.
See “To set the Baseband Operating Mode to BERT” on page398.
