Agilent Technologies 81150A User Manual

Installing the 81150A/81160A
Keys/Switch
Function
 81150A only: The STROBE OUT marks beginning and end of a
burst, marks the beginning of a sweep and outputs the
modulation signal.
 81160A only: The SYNC OUT connector. The Logical TRIGGER
Signal or the Logical STROBE Signal can be routed to the SYNC
OUT.
 The OUTPUT connectors provide the signal output (normal and
inverted) and the indicators show the current state of the
output (on or off).
Special Function Keys:
Store/Recall, Utility; Help
The STORE/RECALL key can be used to store to/recall from 1 to 4
individual settings in the instrument memory.
The UTILITY key provides access to system settings, output amplifier
and clock reference configuration, self-test and self calibration
functionalities.
The HELP key provides access to the instrument’s built-in help system
or in warning or error state, access to Warning/Error Report screen.
Trigger Mode Keys
The following trigger modes are available:
 Continuous
 External Triggered
 External Gated
 Internal Triggered
 Manual
The MAN key can be used to manually trigger or gate the instrument.
Refer to the 81150A and 81160A User Guide for more information on
the Trigger Modes.
Waveform Types
Includes standard waveforms and pre-defined arbitrary waveforms.
Refer to the 81150A User Guide for more information on the
Waveform Types.
Advanced modes of
Operation
There are three advanced modes of operation available:
 Modulation: Selects the modulation type from AM, FM, PM,
FSK, PWM.
 Sweep: For frequency sweeps.
 Burst: Repeats selected waveform n times.
Refer to the 81150A and 81160A User Guide for more information on
the Advanced Modes of Modulation.
