Why is the amplitude double of what I set on my BK Precision Portable Generator?
The amplitude doubling often occurs because the impedance of the generator isn't matched with the oscilloscope. To resolve this, connect a 50 Ω terminator to the oscilloscope input, then use a BNC cable to connect the generator and the terminator, ensuring impedance matching.
How to troubleshoot power issues with my BK Precision BK4053B?
First, check that the power cord is securely connected to the AC input and that your electrical AC outlet is providing live power. Also, verify that the AC power from the mains is the correct voltage for the generator.
What to do if there is no output from the terminals of my BK Precision Portable Generator?
Ensure that the Output buttons above channel 1 and/or channel 2 are illuminated. If they are not, press the button once to activate the output.
