Interdependencies
An I/Q modulation with an external analog signal cannot be used simultaneously in
the same signal path with the following:
●
AM, digital modulation, digital standards
●
Fading, noise
●
External digital baseband input signal, arbitrary waveform generation, and multi-
carrier CW.
6.3 I/Q Modulator Settings
1. To configure the input signal source of the I/Q modulator, select "I/Q Mod > I/Q
Mod In" and enable an internal baseband or an analog wideband input signal.
2. To access the dialog box for configuring the I/Q modulator settings, select "I/Q Mod
> I/Q Settings > I/Q Modulator".
