MDWV - Modulate Wave Command
DESCRIPTION
Sets a modulated waveform or retrieves current Modulate Wave settings.
SYNTAX
<channel>:MoDulateWaVe <parameter>,<value>,…
<channel>:=
{C1|C2}
<parameter>:= {a parameter from the table below }
<value>:-
{a value from the table below)
IMPORTANT: This command cannot be used if Basic wave type is NOISE. To configure wave
modulation, first set STATE ON and specify AM, DSBAM, FM, PM, PWM, ASK, FSK or CARR before
setting related parameters (e.g., C1:MDWV STATE,ON,FM,<parameter>,<value>). Once set, you do not
need to repeat AM, DSBAM, FM, PM, PWM, ASK, FSK or CARR; it is shown here to indicate which
parameters can follow it.
Parameters
Value
Description
STATE
{ON|OFF}
Turns on/off wave modulation. First set STATE ON before setting other
Modulate Wave parameters.
(AM,)SRC
{INT|EXT}
Specifies INTernal or EXTernal AM signal source.
(AM,)MDSP
<wave shape>
Where AM <wave shape>:= {SINE, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, UPRAMP,
DNRAMP, NOISE, ARB}. Parameter is valid only when AM,SRC is INT.
(AM,)FRQ
<frequency>
Where AM <frequency>:= {WS2000 0.002Hz to 20000Hz; WS3000
0.001Hz to 50000Hz}. Parameter is valid only when AM,SRC is INT.
(AM,)DEPTH
<depth>
Where AM <depth>:= {0 to 120}. Parameter is valid only when AM,SRC is
INT.
(DSBAM,)SRC
{INT|EXT}
Specifies INTernal or EXTernal DSBAM signal source.
(DSBAM,)MDSP
<wave shape>
Where DSBAM <wave shape>:= {SINE, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, UPRAMP,
DNRAMP, NOISE, ARB}. Parameter is valid only when DSBAM,SRC is
INT.
(DSBAM,)FRQ
<frequency>
Where DSBAM wave <frequency>:= {default unit is Hz; minimum is 1xe-6
Hz, maximum depends on the WaveStation model}. Parameter is valid only
when DSBAM,SRC is INT.
(FM,)SRC
{INT|EXT}
Specifies internal or external FM signal source.
(FM,)MDSP
<wave shape>
Where FM <wave shape>:= {SINE, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, UPRAMP,
DNRAMP, NOISE, ARB}. Parameter is valid only when FM,SRC is INT.
(FM,)FRQ
< frequency>
Where FM <frequency>:= {WS2000 0.002Hz to 20000Hz; WS3000
0.001Hz to 50000Hz} Parameter is valid only when FM,SRC is INT.
(FM,)DEVI
<frequency offset>
Where FM <frequency offset>:= {0 to basic wave frequency/2}. Parameter
is valid only when FM,SRC is INT.
(PM,)SRC,
{INT|EXT}
Specifies internal or external PM signal source.
