INTRODUCTION
The
6062A Synthesized RF Signal
Generator (referred to as the Generator
or
instrument)
is a
fully-programmable, precision, synthesized signal generator. The
Generator is designed for
applications that require good modulation, frequency
accuracy, and output level performance
with
moderate spectral
purity. It is well suited for testing a wide variety of RF
components and
systems including filters, amplifiers, mixers, and radios, particularly
on-channel radio testing.
The shipping container should include a 6062A Synthesized
RF Signal Generator, an
Operator Information Card, a Getting Started Manual,
an Instruction Manual, a line power
cord and two
BNC dust caps. Any accessories ordered for the Generator
are shipped in a
separate container.
Section
2,
Installation and Operation, gives instructions on inspecting
the new Generator and
explains what to do if the instrument arrives with shipping
damage. Reshipment information is
also included.

SAFETY
This instruction manual contains
information, warnings, and cautions that should
be followed
to ensure safe operation and to maintain the Generator in
a safe condition.
The Generator
is
designed primarily
for indoor use,
and
it may be operated in temperatures
from 0 to 50°C without degradation of its safety.
TO AVOID ELECTRIC
SHOCK,
USE A
POWER CORD THAT
HAS
A
THREE-PRONG PLUG. IF A PROPER POWER CORD IS NOT USED, THE
6062A
CASE
CAN
DEVELOP AN ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL ABOVE EARTH
GROUND.
CAUTION
To avoid
damage
to
the 6062A, check that the rear panel line voltage
selection card and fuse are correct for
the line voltage in your area. The
correct line voltage and fuse combinations
are:
100/120V
ac, ±10%,
47 to 63 Hz
220/240V
ac,
±10%,
47
to 63 Hz
