AUX 1 and AUX 2

AUX 1 and AUX 2

Pulse Test

You can output one or more 500 s pulses from AUX 1 or AUX 2 and measure them with an oscilloscope. The number of pulses is selectable. The pulses have a 50% duty cycle, and thus a total period of 1 ms. The amplitude of the signal is roughly 0 to 4 volts. The pulses are not perfect square waves. The leading edge rises higher than 4 volts, then curves down to approximately 4 volts.

Measuring Pulses from AUX 1 or AUX 2

NOTE

NOTE

1.Connect an oscilloscope to the AUX 1 or AUX.

2.Set the scope as necessary to view the waveform described above.

3.Press:

[Select Instr] {85330A} {} {TEST} {} {AUX 1} or {AUX 2}

4.The message TEST AUXn OUTPUT: # OF TESTS will appear.

5.Use the keyboard to enter the desired number of pulses. You can enter

the number in units or in scientific notation: For example:

100, or 1E2

6. Press the [Return] key. The pulses will appear on the scope.

The 85330A will not perform any other functions during this test. If you enter a large number, such as 1E6, it will take a while to finish. You can abort the test by cycling line power.

To test AUX 2, use the same basic procedure as shown above.
