Deep AM

Function Group MODULATION

Menu Map 4

Description This softkey activates distortion reduction mode for deep AM operation. Deep AM automatically switches to the ALC off leveling mode when the modulation level drives the “detector-logger” (part of the RF components, see Figure A-l) below its detection range. The modulated waveform is DC coupled and ALC leveled above -13 dBm. Below -13 dBm the waveform is DC controllable but not ALC leveled, and is subject to drift of typically 4~0.25 dB/s. This value

is reduced by a factor of 10 if the low ALC bandwidth feature is selected. An asterisk next to the key label indicates that this feature is active.

Description This softkey (Option 002 only) accesses the pulse delay softkeys. These softkeys let you delay the internally generated pulsed output from either the PULSE SYNC OUT signal or from the external pulse signal at the PULSE input.
