This

activates pulse modulation mode, and sets the internal

pulse generator to produce 27.778

square wave pulses

(18

pulse width, 36

pulse period). The rise and fall times of

the RF envelope are approximately 2

These pulses allow proper

operation with HP scalar network analyzers in ac detection mode.
An asterisk next to the key label indicates that this feature is active.
