To add modulation to the waveform generator output

Modulation is where an original carrier signal is modified according to the
amplitude of a second modulating signal. The modulation type (AM, FM, or
FSK) specifies how the carrier signal is modified.
To enable and set up modulation for the waveform generator output:
1 If the Waveform Generator Menu is not currently displayed on the
2 In the Waveform Generator Menu, press the Settings softkey.
3 In the Waveform Generator Settings Menu, press the Modulation softkey.
