4-20 AFG3000 Series Arbitrary/Function Generators Service Manual
Frequency/Period Test
This test verifies the frequency accuracy of the arbitrary/function generator. All
output frequencies are derived from a single generated frequency. Only one
frequency point of channel 1 is required to be checked.
1. Connect the arbitrary/function generator to the frequency counter as shown in
Figure 4-1.
Figure 4-1: Frequency/Period tests
2. Push the Default front-panel button and OK menu button to recall the
arbitrary/function generator default setup.
3. Set up the arbitrary/function generator using the following steps:
4. Check that reading of the Frequency Counter is between 0.999999 MHz and
1.000001 MHz.
5. Set up the arbitrary/function generator using the following steps:
6. Check that reading of the frequency counter is between 0.999999 MHz and
1.000001 MHz.
