CONFIGURATIONS

pins 2 and 3 of front panel connector J12 (Figure 1-4). In this configu-

 

ration, connecting the instrument to line power automatically places it

 

in operate mode (front panel OPERATE LED on).

 

The startup configuration can be changed so that the signal generator

 

comes up in standby mode (front panel STANDBY LED on) when it is

 

connected to line power. Change the startup configuration as follows:

 

Step 1

Disconnect the instrument from line power.

 

Step 2

Remove the top cover from the 682XXB/683XXB.

 

 

(Refer to Chapter 6 for instructions).

 

Step 3

Locate front panel connector J12 and remove the

 

 

jumper from across pins 2 and 3. It is located on the

 

 

A2A1 PCB which plugs into the Front Panel Assem-

 

 

bly.

 

Step 4

Install the jumper across pins 1 and 2 of connector

 

 

J12.

 

Step 5

Install the top cover and connect the signal genera-

 

 

tor to line power. The instrument should come up in

 

 

standby mode.
