The document opens with a Graph display of Voltage (V) versus Time (sec), and the Signal
Generator window which controls the Power Amplifier.
➤ NOTE: For quick reference, see the Experiment Notes window. To bring a display to the top,
click on its window or select the name of the display from the list at the end of the Display
menu. Change the Experiment Setup window by clicking on the “Zoom” box or the Restore
button in the upper right hand corner of that window.
➄
The “Sampling Options…” for this experiment are: Periodic Samples = Fast at 10000 Hz, Start
Condition when Analog C voltage goes to 0 Volts, and Stop Condition = Time at 0.02 seconds.
➅
The Signal Generator is set to output 3.00 V, square AC waveform, at 50.00 Hz.
➅ Arrange the Graph display and the Signal Generator window so you can see both of them.
PART II: Sensor Calibration and Equipment Setup
• You do not need to calibrate the Power Amplifier, or the Voltage sensors.
➀
Connect a 5 inch wire lead between a component spring next to the top banana jack, and the
component spring at the right hand edge of the inductor coil.
