AWG510 & AWG520 Service Manual 4-23
Operating Mode Tests
These procedures check operation of the Cont, Triggered and Gated modes.
Equipment
required
A 50ĂΩcoaxial cable and an oscilloscope.
Prerequisites The AWG500-SeriesWaveform Generator must meet the prerequisites
listed onpage 4-13.
1. Install the test hookup and set test equipment controls:
a. Hook up the oscilloscope: Connect the AWG500–Series Waveform
Generator CH1 output connector through the coaxial cable to the
oscilloscope CH1 input connector (see Figure 4–5).
