Operating Overview

Displaying Analog Measurements

Displaying AF Measurements

FM Deviation, AM Depth, AC Level

The AF Anl In setting determines the AF analyzer’s input and the measurement displayed in the top-right corner of the measurement area (see Figure 3-6). These measurements are displayed on the RF GENERATOR, RF ANALYZER, and AF ANALYZER screens.

Table 3-6lists the measurement displayed for each AF Anl In setting.

Figure 3-6 Displaying FM Deviation, AM Depth, or AC Level

Choices:
