[:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD[:STATe]
Syntax
[:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD[:STATe] <bool>
[:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD[:STATe]?
Description
Enable or disable the modulation of the specified source channel, or query the status of
the modulation of the specified source channel.

If omitted, the operation is
performed on source 1 by default
<bool>
Bool
{{1|ON}|{0|OFF}}
0|OFF
Explanation
 The signal source of MSO1000Z/DS1000Z provides amplitude modulation (AM) and
frequency modulation (FM) which can be selected by sending the
[:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD:TYPe command.
 Sine, Square, Ramp, Built-in waveforms, or Arb waveform (except DC) can be used
as the carrier waveform.
 You can use the [:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD:AM:INTernal:FUNCtion or
[:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD:FM:INTernal:FUNCtion command to selelct Sine, Square,
Triangle, or Noise as the modulating waveform.
Return
Format
The query returns OFF or ON.
Example
:MOD ON /*Enable the modulation of source 1*/
:MOD? /*The query returns ON*/

AM
Explanation
 AM: amplitude modulation. The amplitude of the carrier waveform varies with the
amplitude of the modulating waveform.
FM: frequency modulation. The frequency of the carrier waveform varies with the
amplitude of the modulating waveform.
 Sine, Square, Ramp, Built-in waveforms, or Arb waveform (except DC) can be used
as the carrier waveform.
 You can use the [:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD:AM:INTernal:FUNCtion or
[:SOURce[<n>]]:MOD:FM:INTernal:FUNCtion command to selelct Sine, Square,
Triangle, or Noise as the modulating waveform.
Return
Format
The query returns AM or FM.
Example
:MOD:TYPe AM /*Set the modulation type of source 1 to AM*/
:MOD:TYPe? /*The query returns AM*/
