Performance Verification

Operating Mode Tests

The following procedures verify the operation of the Cont, Triggered and Gated modes.

NOTE. When you output signals from the CH1 or CH1 OUTPUT, check that the other OUTPUT ( CH1 or CH1 ) LED is off. If the other OUT-

PUT LED is on, push the CH1 or CH1 OUT button to turn off the output.

Equipment

A 50 W SMA5coaxial cable,5a5SMA ￿female￿6BNC ￿male￿5adapter, and

required

an oscilloscope5￿TDS784D￿.

 

 

Prerequisites

The AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator must meet the

 

prerequisites listed on page￿4-8.

 

 

Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment controls:

1.Use a 50 W SMA coaxial cable to connect the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output connector to the oscilloscope CH1 input connector (see Figure 4±5).
