Section 4: Using the Model 9500B — Auxiliary Input 4.15-1
Final Width = 215mm
Descriptions assume 9500B/1100
4.15.4 Menu Selections
Signal Channel selection, Trigger Channel
selection, Cable selection and Trigger Ratio all
operate in the same way as in DC/Square
function. Refer to paras 4.5.3.
Note: Without Option 5, only one signal
channel and one trigger channel is
available.
4.15.4.1 Retained Channel Memory
Refer to para 4.5.3.6.
4.15.3 Default Settings
When Manual mode is selected the system
defaults into DC/Square function and shows
the DC/Square function initial menu screen.
The Auxiliary Input function is accessed by
first pressing the 'Aux' key on the right of the
'OSCILLOSCOPE CALIBRATOR' panel,
then pressing the
AUX IN
soft key on the
right of the screen.
Whenever the Auxiliary Input screen is opened,
except on recovery from a standby period, it
will appear as follows (for details of non-
volatility, refer also to para 4.5.3.6):
4.15 Auxiliary Input
This sub section is a guide to the use of the
9500B to generate variable width pulses for
the testing trigger timing circuitry within an
Oscilloscope
For those users who require more detailed
instructions for interconnections, and
manipulating the front panel controls, refer to
sub-sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4.
Section 4.15 is divided into the following sub-
sections:

4.15.6.2 Interconnections ........................... 4.15-2
4.15.6.3 User's Signal Source, 9500B and
UUT Scope Setup ......................... 4.15-2
4.15.6.4 Sequence of Operations ............... 4.15-2
4.15.2 Automated Routing
Despite the huge flexibility if the 9500B, it is
sometimes required to apply signals from user's
equipment to the inputs of a UUT oscilloscope,
for specific calibration or test purposes.
With the 9500B Auxiliary Input selected,
wideband passive routing is available from a
rear-panel 50Ω SMA input through to the
selected 9500B channel output, using 9500B
front panel controls.
No trigger pickoff is provided, and internal
triggers are not available.
