Operation

3.1

FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
The front panel controls are functionally grouped and clearly
designated for ease of operation. Their functions are described
below :

1. FREQUENCY DIAL

This is frequency setting with a calibrated dial. The output
frequency is multiplication of the reading on dial and
FREQ. MULT (Frequency multiplier) setting.

2. FREQ. MULT. SWITCH

This switch selects the desired frequency range of the
function generator, in decades.

3. FUNCTION SWITCH

Selects Sine, Triangle or Square wave output of the
Function Generator. The TTL output is not affected by this
switch position.

4. LEVEL RANGE

This is 4 position output attenuator switch. The ranges
from 1mV - 10mV, 10mV - 100mV, 100mV - 1V & 1V - 10V
p-p can be selected.

5. OUTPUT CONNECTOR

This is a BNC connector for the function output.

6. LEVEL FINE

This is a continuously variable level control with approx.
20dB range.

7. DC OFFSET

Zero when feature not selected, ±5V DC into open circuit
when selected.

8. TTL OUT CONNECTOR

Square wave output (TTL) is available at this connector.
The TTL signal is in phase with function output.

9. SWEEP IN

DC voltage input to control function generator frequency
(VCG). Input voltage should be with range of 0 to ±10V
DC.

10. POWER ON LED

This LED indicate that power is on.

3.2

REAR PANEL CONTROLS

1. POWER ON/OFF SWITCH

The Function Generator can be turned ON/OFF by this
rear panel switch.

2. FUSE

This is a fuse in series with mains supply (for 230V -
100mA & for 115V - 250mA).
