The front panet is (aid ov: logically; there are numerous LED indicators to provide feedback to the user. ‘The Mode! FG2 Function Generator is an AC-operated instrument with many outstanding features. Produces square, triangle, and sine waves and TTL pulses Produces signals in the 0.2 Hz to 2.0 MHz range in seven decade increments: Variable frequency multiplier Duty cycle control Variable DC offset controt Signat inversion Output amplitude contro!

Be sure that the AC power input is the same as specified on the label at the back of this instrument Stiictly observe the VET input limits 2s oullined in the electrical specificalions section. Use this instrument within an ambient temperature range of O°C 10 50°C. De not place this instrument on top of other high temperature equipments. Never permit water to enter the interior of this instrument Never subject this instrument 'o severe shock. octos comhopingSection Four FEATURE DESCRIPTION Pot faatres fesrvibed in this section, reter to Figure 1. is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that the user become familiar with the controls and indicators described below belore operating the instument.

Depressing one switch will release the switch previously depressed ATTENUATOR Switch Pushing this switch in will result in a fixed 20 db attenuation of the output waveform ampiitude. MULTIPLIER The MULTIPLIER is a variable potentiometer allowing frequency settings between fixed ranges. Although the dial scale is calibrated from 0.2 19 2.0, the dynamic range of the MULTIPLIER is actually larger However, seitings below 0.2 and above 2.0 are nonlinear DUTY Centro! Time symmetry of the output wavetorms, as well as the TTL PULSE output, is contealled by the DUTY potentiometer. When this control is set to the CAL position, Ihe time symmetry of the output waveforms, 15 50/50, oF approximately 100% symmetrical. This ts the 50% duty cycle point, The variable symmetry atlows the time period of one-half the wavelorm to be changed white the other half remains liked as determined by RANGE end MULTIPLIER settings. This unique feature provides tamip waveforms, variable pulse widih, and variable duly cycle pulses, and skewed sine waves wav geetioscomichopin Grazie al Prot Glance Costa 69G OFFSET Contiol The DC OFFSET Contiotis provided to alfow the DC level of the output wavotorms to be set as desivec, ‘The amount of ottset plus the amplitude seiting must not exceed the maximum peak-to-peak amplitude ‘or clipping will resull (See peak-to-peak amplitude specification in the electrical specifications section } Table 2 dlustrates the ellect of the DC OFFSET contol 10, AMPLITUDE Controt The AMPA ITUDE Control provides 20 dh of attenuation of the output wevelorm selected by the FUNC: ION switen 11.
