Explanation

 ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying): the signal generator shifts the output amplitude

between two preset amplitudes (the carrier amplitude and modulation

amplitude).

 The ASK carrier waveform could be Sine, Square, Ramp or Arbitrary waveform

(except DC). The default is Sine. Pulse, Noise and DC in the arbitrary waveform

could not be used as carrier waveform. The different settings of various

parameters (such as the frequency, amplitude, offset and start phase) of the

carrier waveform will influence the ASK modulated waveform.

 When [:SOURce[<n>]] or [<n>] is omitted, the system sets the related

parameters of CH1 by default.

 If the sweep function (

[:SOURce[<n>]]:SWEep:STATe

) or burst function

(

[:SOURce[<n>]]:BURSt[:STATe]

) is currently enabled, it will be disabled

automatically when the modulation function is turned on.

 If the harmonic function is currently enabled

(

[:SOURce[<n>]]:HARMonic[:STATe]

), the modulation function cannot be

turned on (namely the harmonic cannot be modulated).

Return Format

The query returns ON or OFF.

Example

:SOUR1:ASK:STAT ON /*Turn on the ASK modulation function of CH1*/
:SOUR1:ASK:STAT? /*Query the on/off status of the ASK modulation function

of CH1 and the query returns ON*/
