113. Modulation Frequency Correction Off. This special function disables the
single-band calibration of the modulation frequency oscillator that normally occurs
whenever the modulation oscillator frequency is set or the internal modulation
oscillator is put into use. When this calibration is disabled, the typical modulation
frequency switching time is decreased by approximately 200 ms. For more
information, refer to "Speeding Up Modulation Switching Time" on page 3-132.
213. Modulation Frequency Correction On. This special function re-enables the
modulation frequency correction disabled with Special Function 113.
248. Calibrate the Modulation Frequency Bands Again. This special function enables
you to initiate the calibration sequence that normally only occurs during instrument
power up. This function can be used, for example, to recalibrate the modulation
oscillator frequency bands if normal modulation frequency correction has been
disabled
with Special Function 113. Calibration typically takes one to two seconds.
Refer to Modulation Oscillator (page 3-13 t) for more information about the internal
modulation oscillator that is the common source for all internal modulation as well as
for the MOD OUTPUT connector.
Refer to Amplitude (page 3-74) for information on Attenuator Range Hold (Special
Function 9). This special function creates monotonic amplitUde ranges that limit the
specified range of AM.
Refer to Knob (page 3-141) and Step, Increment Set (page 3-149) for information on
using these
to modify settings.
Refer to Operating Messages (page 3 -177) if the instrument displays a message you
want clarified.
Refer to Special Functions (page 3-165) for information about the way these are
accessed.
