Performance Tests
Performance Verification Procedures
These procedures check those characteristics that relate to the Main and
Delayed trigger systems and are listed as checked under
Warranted Charac-
teristics
in Section 2,
Specifications.
Check Accuracy (Time) for Pulse-Glitch or Pulse-Width
Triggering
Equipment Required:
One medium-frequency leveled sine wave generator
(Item 10), one 10X attenuator (Item 1), and one precision, 50 , coaxial cable
(Item 4).
Prerequisites:
See page 1-15.
Procedure:
1.
Install the test hookup and preset the instrument controls:
a.
Initialize the instrument:
Press save/recall SETUP.
Press the main-menu button Recall Factory Setup.
Press the side-menu button OK Confirm Factory Init.
b.
Modify the default setup:
Press vertical MENU.
Press the main-menu button Coupling; then press the side-me-
nu button to select 50 coupling.
Set the horizontal SCALE to 10 ns.
c.
Hook up the test-signal source:
Connect, through a 50 precision
coaxial cable, followed by a 10X attenuator, the output of a medium-
frequency leveled sine wave generator (Item 10) to CH 1. See Fig-
ure 1-14.
