SWEEP MODE SETTINGS - The 1500CS can generate a signal on
channel B whose frequency constantly varies over a specified period of
time. This feature is useful for simulating acceleration or deceleration
runs of machinery.
START FREQUENCY – This value defines the frequency at
which the SWEEP will begin.
STOP FREQUENCY – This value defines the frequency at
which the SWEEP will stop.
FREQUENCY UNITS – Use the drop down tool to select either
Hz (hertz or cycles per second) or RPM (Revolutions per
Minute).
SWEEP TIME – Enter the period of time (in seconds) in which
the sweep will be performed.
CHANNEL B SETTINGS
FUNCTION – This may be set to SINE, TRIANGLE,
SAWTOOTH, SQUARE, PULSE, TACH or TTL signals using the
drop down menu selector.
PULSE MODE – The 1500CS and 1510A produce a single
pulse occurring at the same frequency or at a ratio of the
Channel A frequency. The pulse duty cycle can be
programmed from 3% to 100% of the period.
TACH MODE – The 1500CS and 1510A can produce a
series of pulses simulating a multi-tooth gear speed signal.
