Quick Start
One of the first things you will want to do with your function generator
is to become acquainted with its front panel. We have written the
exercises in this chapter to prepare the function generator for use and
help you get familiar with some of the front-panel operations.
The front panel has two rows of keys to select various functions and
operations. Most keys have a shifted function printed in blue above
the key. To perform a shifted function, press
Shift (the Shift annun-
ciator will turn on). Then, press the key that has the desired label
above it. For example, to select the
AM (amplitude modulation)
function, press
Shift AM (the shifted version of the key).
If you accidentally press
Shift , just press it again to turn off the
Shift annunciator.
Most keys also have a number printed in green next to the key.
To enable the number mode, press
Enter Number (the Num annunciator
will turn on). Then, press the keys that have the desired numbers
printed next to them. For example, to select the number “10”,
press
Enter Number 1 0 (next to the and Recall keys).
If you accidentally press
Enter Number , just press Shift Cancel
to turn off the Num annunciator.
