While a modulation format is active (is on), the waveform file
(AUTOGEN_WAVEFORM) plays and you can modify the header information
within the active modulation format. Once you turn the modulation format off,
the header information is available only through the dual ARB player.
I/Q Mod Filter: The I/Q modulator filter setting. The modulator filter affects the I/Q signal modulated onto the RF
carrier.
I/Q Output Filter: The I/Q output filter setting. The I/Q output filter is used for I/Q signals routed to the rear panel I
and Q outputs.
Mod Attenuation: The I/Q modulator attenuation setting.
