Selects the operating mode for the VOR modulation signal. The following options are available for the VOR Mode.
"NORM" VOR modulation is active.
"VAR" Amplitude modulation of the output signal with the VAR signal component (30 Hz signal content) of the VOR signal. The modulation depth corresponds to the value set for VOR - Ref - VAR Depth.
"Sub-carrier" Amplitude modulation of the output signal with the unmodulated FM carrier (9960 Hz) of the VOR signal. The modulation depth corresponds to the value set for VOR - Ref - Subcarrier Depth.
"Sub-carrier+FM" Amplitude modulation of the output signal with the frequency-modulated FM carrier (9960 Hz) of the VOR signal. The frequency deviation corresponds to the value set for VOR - Ref - REF Deviation and the modulation depth corresponds to the value set for VOR - Ref - Subcarrier Depth.
OFF - When you select OFF, all VOR signals are turned off and the Generate button is disabled.

The following tab is available when you select TDME as the Avionics Type.
TDME
Sets the Pulse Type to one of the following two options:
Singlet - There is only a single pulse. Therefore, the Intra Pulse Spacing is not applicable when you set Pulse Type to Singlet.
Doublet - There are two pulses.

Specify a valid COM/ID code (airport identification code) by typing a 3-character code enclosed in single-quotes or double-quotes (for example, ‘STS’ or “STS”). COM/ID Code is set to default value i.e STS.
COM/ID Code:
Cannot contain more than 3 characters
Ccharacters should be only [a-z] [A-Z]
Numbers are not allowed in the COMID Code.
Example: If you specify a value ‘abc’ in the COM/ID Code and then change the value to ‘ab1’ then it should hold the previous value i.e ‘abc’ because the combination of characters and alphabets are not allowed.

Sets the period of the COM/ID signal in seconds. The default value of this setting is 2.6 s.
There is a relation between the morse length and this Period setting. For example, if you specify STS in the COM/ID Code, its morse length is 2.2 s and that is the minimum value of Period.
You can specify any value greater than 2.2 s. The value less than 2.2 sec is not permitted. If you specify a value less than 2.2 sec, the value will be automatically set to the minimum required value.
