Basic Digital Operation—No BBG Option InstalledI/Q ModulationConfiguring the Front Panel InputsThe Agilent MXG accepts externally supplied analog I and Q signals through the front panel I Inputand Q Input for modulating onto the carrier.1. Connect I and Q signals to the front panel connectors. For voltage levels, refer to “Front PanelOverview – N5181A/82A MXG” on page 5.a. Connect an analog I signal to the signal generator’s front panel I Input.b. Connect an analog Q signal to the signal generator’s front panel Q Input.2. Turn on the I/Q modulator: Press I/Q Off On to On.3. Configure the RF output:a. Set the carrier frequency.b. Set the carrier amplitude.c. Turn the RF output on.4. Make adjustments to the I/Q signals (page 136) as needed.Agilent N5161A/62A/81A/82A/83A MXG Signal Generators User’s Guide 137
