Square - A square wave with same duty cycle as the main output
at the waveform frequency.

frequency. The sync is a TTL high when the first point of the
waveform is output. Noise - No sync associated with noise.
Modulation Sync: AM/FM/PM/PWM A square wave with 50% duty cycle
referenced to the internal modulation waveform when modulation
source is internal, or a square wave referenced to the carrier
waveform when modulation source is external. No sync is
associated with noise as the modulation source.

sync is a TTL high when hop frequency is the output frequency
and TTL low when carrier frequency is the output frequency for
positive slope and vice versa for negative slope.

synchronizing burst or gated signals.

to provide outputs at the same frequency (or harmonics) and with
a phase difference. The amplitude and phase of these outputs can
also be modulated providing the capability to perform QAM and
QPSK respectively. It is also possible to synchronise more than
two generators but results are not guaranteed.
