Function Trigger and Marker
The equipment layout for generating the digital modulation signals includes the options R&S B13 (Baseband
Main Module) and R&S B10 (Baseband Generator).

Test method
In the Custom Digital Mod menu, a modulation with 100 kHz symbol
rate, external triggering and active marker outputs (with 50 kHz and
25 kHz) is set. Modulation is started with the external trigger. No
parameters are checked, but only whether the modulation has triggered
(query of trigger status) and whether the markers are output.

Check markers using the oscilloscope:
Marker 1: frequency 50 kHz, Marker 2: frequency 25 kHz.
Note:
Marker 3 or 1B is not measured here, but rather in the test of the
AUX-IO.
The number of necessary measurement depends on the number of installed RF- and baseband paths, see
following table:
