■
Touch Upper Limit. Use the keypad to set the upper limit to 10 ns.
■
Touch Lower Limit. Use the keypad to set the lower limit to 2 ns.
b. Display the test signal:
■
Set the Horizontal Scale to 20 ns.
■
Set the output of the sine wave generator for a 100 MHz, five-
division sine wave on screen. Set the Vertical Scale to 20 mV (the
waveform will overdrive the display).
■
Press PUSH-SET 50%.
c. Check against limits: Do the following subparts in the order listed.
■
While doing the following subparts, monitor the display (it will stop
acquiring) and the front-panel light Trig'd (it will extinguish) to
determine when triggering is lost.
■
≥ 4 GHz models: Press the multipurpose knobs until Fine is on.
■
Use the multipurpose knob to increase the Lower Limit readout
until triggering is lost.
■
CHECK that the Lower Limit readout, after the instrument stops
triggering, is within the following limits:
Model Limit
< 4 GHz models 3.5 ns to 6.5 ns
≥ 4 GHz models 4.77 ns to 5.23 ns
■
Enter the time on the test record.
■
Use the keypad to return the Lower Limit to 2 ns and reestablish
triggering.
■
Touch Upper Limit; then use the multipurpose knob to slowly
decrease the Upper Limit readout until triggering stops.
■
CHECK that the Upper Limit readout, after the instrument loses
triggering, is within the following limits:
Model Limit
< 4 GHz models 3.5 ns to 6.5 ns, inclusive
≥ 4 GHz models 4.77 ns to 5.23 ns, inclusive
■
Enter the time on the test record.
