Goods-in checks
The following goods-in check verifies that the instrument is functioning correctly, but does not
verify conformance to the listed specification. To verify that the instrument conforms to the
specification given in Chapter 1, refer to Chapter 7, ‘Acceptance testing’.
(1) Ensure that the correct fuse is fitted (accessible from the rear panel) and connect the
instrument to the supply.
(2) Switch on and check that a display is present.
(3) If the instrument appears to be completely dead, carry out the following:
Check that the mains power supply line is providing power to the instrument.
Check that the mains fuses have not blown.
Connecting to supply
Ensure that the AC supply is correctly connected to the POWER SUPPLY socket. For supplies in
the range 90−132 V and 188−264 V the PSU automatically selects the appropriate range. There is
no manual voltage range selection provided.
Fuse
For the AC voltage range of 90−264 V the fuse rating is 4 A-T (time lag). The AC fuse is a
cartridge type measuring 20 mm
× 5 mm.
The fuse-holder is integral with the rear-panel 3-pin supply plug. For access to change the fuse,
use a screwdriver to lever out the holder.
General purpose interface bus (GPIB)
The GPIB interface built into the instrument enables the signal generators to be remotely
controlled to form part of an automatic measuring system.
GPIB cable connection
Connection to other equipment which has a 24-way connector to IEEE Standard 488 is made using
the rear-panel GPIB 1 socket. For this purpose, the GPIB cable assembly, available as an optional
accessory, (see Chapter 1, ‘Versions, options and accessories’) may be used. A second socket,
GPIB 2, may be fitted as an option (not yet implemented).
