Follow these steps to configure the test equipment.
1. Ensure the waveform monitor is enclosed in a cabinet before connecting AC
power.
2. Connect the waveform monitor to an appropriate AC power source.
3. Connect the component serial digital output of the signal generator to one
side of the SER A input.
4. Terminate the other side of the loop-through the SER A input with the 75 W
terminator.
5. For the WFM 601A only, connect one of the Function Generator audio
outputs to pins 8 and 9 of the REMOTE 25-pin connector; connect the other
output to pins 10 and 11. See Appendix B: Remote Operation for more
information on configuring the waveform monitor’s remote connector for
audio input. Ensure that the generator amplitude is a nominal 5 V, but not
greater than 8 Vpeak.
This procedure does not check the monitor outputs (MON OUT). To check these
outputs, connect a GBR or YPbPr analog component monitor and check for the
Color bar pattern during the procedure.
