Performance Verification
AWG510 & AWG520 Service Manual 
a. Initialize the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator controls:
Push UTILITY (front–panel)
System (bottom)Factory Reset (side)OK (side).
b. Set enhanced mode: Push SETUP (front–panel)Run Mode (bot-
tom)Enhanced (side) to set the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator
to enhanced mode.
c. Select the sequence file: Load the AMP1.SEQ as referring to the
procedures on page 4–15.
3. Turn on the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator CH1 output: Push the
RUN and CH1 OUT buttons so that the LEDs above the RUN button and
CH1 output connector light.
4. Check amplitude accuracy:
a. Set the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator amplitude and confirm the
offset setting:
Push VERTICAL MENU (front–panel)Amplitude (side).
Enter numeric value of 0.02: Push 0, ., 0, 2 and ENTER keys in this
order to set the amplitude to 0.020 V.
Confirm the current offset setting: Confirm that the offset setting
display on the Offset side button is 0.000 V. If not, push the Offset
side button, and push 0 and then ENTER key.
b. Check the amplitude accuracy of 20 mV amplitude setting:
Write the reading on DMM as a positive voltage.
Push the FORCE EVENT button.
Write the reading on DMM as a negative voltage.
Check that the positive minus negative voltages fall within
20 mV ± 2.3 mV.
c. Set the AWG500–Series Waveform Generator amplitude: Push 0, ., 2 and
ENTER keys in this order to set the amplitude to 0.200 V.
d. Check the amplitude accuracy of 200 mV amplitude setting:
Push the FORCE EVENT button.
Write the reading on DMM as a positive voltage.
Push the FORCE EVENT button.
Write the reading on DMM as a negative voltage.
