h. Check— A stable display in both positions of the SLOPE
switch.
i. Remove the 10X probe.
Performance Check— Type 503
30. Check Sweep Timing— 1 mSEC/CM
a. Requirement— Sweep accuracy + 3 % (2.4 mm in 8 cm).

c. Set the time-mark generator (item 5 of Recommended
Equipment) to supply 1-millisecond markers.
d. Connect a 50-ohm cable from the time-mark gener
ator output connector to the VERTICAL -{-INPUT connector.
e. Set the VERTICAL SENSITIVITY and the VARIABLE
control so that the display amplitude is approximately 3 cm.
f. Check— 1 marker/cm, ± 3 % (2.4 mm in 8 cm).
31. Check Sweep Length
a. Requirement— Sweep length 10.2 to 10.8 cm.
b. Change the SWEEP TIME/CM to 1 mSEC, the time-
mark generator output to 1-millisecond markers, and the
SOURCE switch to INT.
c. Check— A sweep length of 10.2 cm to 10.8 cm.
32. Check Sweep Timing— 10 /lSEC/CM
a. Requirement—Sweep accuracy + 3 % (2.4 mm in 8 cm).
b. Change the generator output to 10 - microsecond
markers.
c. Change the SWEEP TIME/CM switch to 10/tSEC.
d. Check— One marker/cm, ± 3% .
33. Check Sweep Timing— 1 /xSEC/CM
a. Requirement— Sweep accuracy ±3 % (2.4 mm in 8 cm)
b. Change the time-mark generator output to 1-micro
second markers.
c. Change the SWEEP TIME/CM switch to 1 /tSEC.
d. Connect a 50-ohm cable from the time-mark generator
trigger output connector to the EXTERNAL TRIG. IN con
nector, and set the generator to supply 10-microsecond
triggers.
e. Change the SOURCE switch to EXT.
f. Check—One marker/cm, ± 3% .
34. Check Variable Control Ratio
a. Requirement— >2.5:1 reduction in sweep rates.
b. Rotate the SWEEP TIME/CM VARIABLE control fully
counterclockwise.
c. Check— >2.5 times as many markers in a given display
area.
d. Return the VARIABLE control fully clockwise.
35. Check Sweep Timing
a. Requirement—Sweep accuracy ± 3 % (2.4 mm in 8 cm)
in all SWEEP TIME/CM ranges.
b. Set the time-mark generator and Type 503 as indicated
in Table 5-5, checking for timing accuracy tolerances as
shown.

JUse external triggering; i.e., connect a UHF T connector and an
additional 50-ohm cable from the time-mark generator to the EX
TERNAL TRIG. IN connector, change the SOURCE switch to EXT.,
and obtain a stable display with the LEVEL control.
