x.
Position the waveform vertically to place the top of the signal 1
division below the center horizontal graticule line.
y. CHECK-that the signal remains triggered with the TRIG'D
indicator light on.
z. Disconnect the test equipment from the CH
2
probe tip.

b. Connect the Leveled Sine-Wave Generator output via a 504
termination, a BNC T-connector, and a BNC-to-male probe-tip
adapter to the CH 1 probe tip.
c. Connect the other side of the T-connector via a 504 coaxial
cable and BNC-female-to-dual banana connector to the
EXT

and
EXT
TRIG COMM inputs.
d. Vertically center the display.
e. Set the Sine-Wave Generator for
4
divisions of amplitude at
10 MHz.
f. CHECK-that the display is stably triggered with the TRIG'D
indicator light on.

Check External Trigger Level Range
a. SET: CHIVOLTSIDIV 1 V
SECIDIV 5 PS
b. Adjust the Leveled Sine-Wave Generator for maximum output
at 50 kHz (just over a 5-division display amplitude).
c. Vertically center the display and horizontally position the
beginning of the sweep at the second vertical graticule line.
