Internal Timebase Verification
Internal Timebase Verification
This test verifies the output frequency accuracy of the instrument. All
output frequencies are derived from a single generated frequency.
1 Connect a frequency counter as shown below (the frequency counter
input should be terminated at 50 Ω).
2 Set the instrument to the output described in the table below and
measure the output frequency. Be sure the instrument output is enabled.
