Their uses are described below, refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. PWR ON For turning on the AC power; pilot lamp glows at on. SWEEP FREQ Sets the center frequancy of the sv ept output; sweep is positive joing: i. « ® @ 4 frequency increases towards the right. @ FINE output Adjusts the swept output voltage for each of the steps. @ Output Step attenuator Four ranges, 0, 10, 30 and S0dB, approx., at 1, 23 and 4 respectively. @© SWEEP WIDTH Varies the width of the sweep frequency; width is maximum at fell clock * C1)wise © MARKER FREQ — Sets the frequency of the marker signal. Four scales are used as follows: coLor | RANGE BAND RED A 2-6.5MHz YELLON B 0-18.5MHe GREEN c 18-65MHz 60-250MHe @ MARKER SIZE When pushed in, the knob adjusts ht of the marker on the PULL OFF trace; when pulled out to “Pull Off" position, the marker circuit is switeh- ed off but the erystal oscillator is on if the MOD SELECT switch is at RF/CALIB. FREQ RANGE _ For selecting the marker frequency band. @ MOD SELECT — With three positions for modulation of the marker signal: AF Applies IKHz modulation, OFF Unmodulated marker signal RE/CALIB Superimposes Crystal frequency on the marker SWEEP OUT connector RF output cable connection; output inpedance is 752. FROM TP connector For connecting to the test signal pickup point in the circuit under ‘examination. SCOPE V connector For connecting to the vertical input of the scope; output signal inel~ vudes the circuit response and marker frequency. SCOPE H connector For connseting to ths horizontal input of the scope to provide the sweep voltage. MARKER OUTMIN connector For use of internal marker on an external circuit or to feed in an external marker frequency source. PHONE. For inserting the earphone plug when checking or calibrating the marker inst the crystal oscilator @ © 8 ® 66 Fig
