Operating I nstructions—Type 422 AC-DC
j
INVERT Push-pull switch to invert the Channel
(CH 2 only)
2 display.
X I0 GAIN AC Push pull switch to increase AC gain of
(CH 2 only)
Calibrator
Channel 2 amplifier 10 times (de
creases deflection factor 10 times).
CALIBRATOR
Output jack providing two-volt square-
wave signal for compensating probes.
Triggering
Source
(not labeled)
Selects source of trigger signal.
CH 1 & 2: Internal trigger signal ob-
tained from displayed channel(s).
CH 1: Internal trigger signal obtained
only from Channel 1.
EXT: Trigger signal obtained from an
external signal applied to TRIG IN
connector.
Coupling Determines method of coupling trigger
(not labeled) signal to trigger circuit.
AC: Rejects DC and attenuates signals
below about 50 hertz. Accepts sig
nals between about 50 hertz and 15
megahertz.
SLOPE
LEVEL
AC LF REJ: Rejects DC and atten
uates signals below about 50 kilo
hertz. Accepts signals between TRIG IN
about 50 kilohertz and 15 mega
hertz.
GATE OUT
DC: Accepts all trigger signals from
DC to 15 megahertz or greater.
Selects slope of trigger signal which
starts the sweep.
_ T : Sweep can be triggered from
positive-going portion of trigger
signal.
■ Sweep can be triggered from
negative-going portion of trigger
signal.
Selects amplitude point on trigger sig
nal at which sweep is triggered.
Ground

Sweep
POSITION
X I0 MAG
TRIGGERING Push-pull switch, actuated by the TIME/DIV
Mode LEVEL control, which determines the
(not labeled) triggering mode.
AUTO (pushed in): Sweep initiated
by the applied trigger signal at
point selected by the LEVEL con
trol when the trigger signal repetit
ion rate is above about 20 hertz (or
above lower lim it of frequency
range selected by TRIGGERING
Coupling switch). Triggered sweep
can be obtained only throughout
amplitude range of applied trigger
signal. When the LEVEL control is
outside the amplitude range, when
the trigger repetition rate is below
the lower frequency limit or when
the trigger signal is inadequate, the
sweep free runs at the sweep rate
selected by the TIME/DIV switch
to produce a reference trace.
NORM (pulled out): Sweep initiated
by the applied trigger signal at
point selected by the LEVEL con
tro l throughout the frequency
range selected by the TRIGGER
ING Coupling switch. Triggered
sweep can be obtained only
throughout amplitude range of ap
plied trigger signal. When the LEV
EL control is outside the amplitude
range, when the trigger repetition
rate is outside the frequency range
selected by the TRIGGERING
Coupling switch or when the trigger
signal is inadequate, there is no
trace.
Input connector for external trigger
signal.
Output connector providing a nega
tive-going rectangular pulse which is
coincident with the sweep.
Binding post to establish common
ground between the Type 422 and the
associated equipment.
Controls horizontal position of dis
play.
Push-pull switch to increase sweep rate
to 10 times setting of TIME/DIV
switch by horizontally expanding the
center division of the display.
Selects sweep rate of the sweep genera
tor (VARIABLE control must be in
CAL position and X I0 MAG switch
pushed in for indicated sweep rate). In
the EXT HORIZ position, horizontal
deflection is provided by a signal con
nected to the HORIZ IN connector.
