5. Press Done.
You now have a multitone setup with five tones spaced 20 kHz apart. The center tone is placed at
the carrier frequency, while the other four tones are spaced in 20 kHz increments from the center
tone.
Configuring Tone Powers and Tone Phases
1. Highlight the value (0 dB) in the Power column for the tone in row 2.
2. Press Edit Table > Edit Item > –4.5 > dB.

waveform generation, the M-TONE and I/Q annunciators activate and the multitone waveform is
stored in volatile ARB memory. The waveform is now modulating the RF carrier.
