External AM
The "External AM" on page 478 softkey activates an AM modulation of the tracking
generator output signal.
The modulation signal is applied to the TG IN I/AM connector. An input voltage of 1 V
corresponds to 100% amplitude modulation.
Switching on an external AM disables the active I/Q modulation.
External FM
The "External FM" on page 478 softkey activates the FM modulation of the tracking
generator output signal.
The modulation frequency range is 1 kHz to 100 kHz, the deviation can be set in 1-
decade steps in the range of 100 Hz to 10 MHz at an input voltage of 1 V. The phase
deviation h should not exceed the value 100.
Phase deviation h = deviation/modulation frequency
The modulation signal is applied to the TG IN Q/FM connector.
Switching on an external FM disables the active I/Q modulation.
External IQ
The "External I/Q" on page 478 softkey activates the external I/Q modulation of the
tracking generator.
The signals for modulation are applied to the two input connectors TG IN I and TG IN
Q at the rear panel of the unit. The input voltage range is ±1 V into 50 Ω.
Switching on an external I/Q modulation disables the active external AM or FM.
