Do the following steps to set the AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator
controls and to select the waveform file:
1. Push UTILITY (front-panel)System (bottom)Factory Reset
(side)OK (side).
2. Load the MODE.WFM file.
Refer to Loading Files on page B–10 for file loading procedures.
3. Push the RUN and CH1 output buttons.
The LEDs above the RUN button and CH1 output connectors are on.
4. Check that the amplitude of the sine wave displayed on the oscilloscope is 5
vertical divisions and that a waveform of approximately one cycle per 1.9
horizontal divisions is displayed.
The following table lists the equipment and prerequisites required to check the
Triggered mode.
Equipment
required
Two50ĂWBNCĂcoaxial cables, aĂ50ĂWSMAĂcoaxial cable,
ĂaĂSMA(Fe)ĆBNC(Ma)Ăadapter,ĂaĂBNCĆTĂ(maleto 2 females) adapter , a
function generator,and an oscilloscopeĂ(TDS700).
Prerequisites The AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator must meet the
prerequisites listedon page B-8.
Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment
controls:
1. Use a 50ĂWBNC coaxial cable and a BNC-T adapter to connect the function
generator output connector to the AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator
TRIG IN connector. Refer to Figure B–6.
2. Connect a second 50ĂWBNC coaxial cable to the BNC-T adapter. Connect
the opposite end of the coaxial cable to the oscilloscope CH2 input.
3. Use a 50 WSMA coaxial cable andĂSMA(Fe)ĆBNC(Ma)ĂadapterĂto connect the
AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output connector to the
oscilloscope CH1 input connector.
