PDG-2515/2520 Operating Manual

Applications

The versatile functionality of the PDG-2520 makes it ideal for the needs of numerous applications as a small bench top instrument. The delay resolution and width resolution of each channel allow a unique ability to offset control signals, coupled with ability to logically manipulate the outputs together to form gate signals or specific waveforms make automation of testing and control an easier process.

Safety

Normal use of test equipment exposes the user to a certain amount of danger from electrical shock because testing may be performed with exposed voltages present, dictating the use of caution when operating or servicing this equipment. The following is a summary of general safety precautions that must be observed during all phases of operation and repair of the PDG-2520.

Operating Safety Summary

The safety information contained in this summary is for both operating and servicing personnel. Specific warnings may be found throughout this manual, but may not appear in this summary.

Power Source

The PDG-2520 is designed to operate from a regulated power source. To assure proper system operation the input voltage should not vary by more than 10% from the recommended specification. The PDG-2520 accepts input voltages from 90VAC to 264VAC at 47Hz to 63Hz.

A protective grounding connection by way of the grounding conductor in the AC power cord is essential.

Grounding

The PDG-2520 is grounded through the grounding conductor of the AC power cord. To avoid electrical shock, plug the PDG-2520 into a properly wired receptacle before making connection to any input or output connectors. Use only a power cord that is in good condition.

Cover Removal

To avoid personal injury, do not remove the covers. Do not operate the PDG-2520 while the covers are removed. Operating the unit with the top cover removed voids any and all warranties associated with the PDG- 2520.

General Operating Precautions

Do not open the unit while the system is in operation. Use caution when handling or removing the output cables while the unit is operating. Turn off
