Event Input and Enhanced Mode Tests
These procedures check the event input signals and enhanced mode operation.
. The event input check with strobe off and the strobe input check are
structured as a continuous test. After Check Event Input with Strobe Off, the
next test uses the connections and oscilloscope settings from the previous test.
Equipment
required
AĂ50ĂWSMAĂcoaxial cable,ĂaĂSMA(Fe)ĆBNC(Ma)Ăadapter an
oscilloscopeĂ(TDS700), and customĆmade ground closure. See Figure
B-3 for the connections.
Prerequisites The AWG610Arbitrary 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 50WSMA coaxial cable and a SMA(Fe)-BNC(Fe) adapter to connect
the AWG610 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output connector to the
oscilloscope CH1 input connector (see Figure B–20).
