Setup

Connection

1. Connect the black banana cable of the U8201A to the B2960A's Ch1 Low Force Terminal.

2. Connect the red banana cable of the U8201A to the B2960A's Ch1 High Force Terminal.

3. Clip the end of the 1.1 kΩ resistor with the black alligator clip of the U8201A.

4. Clip the other end of the 1.1 kΩ resistor with the red alligator clip of the U8201A.

5. Probe across the 1.1 kΩ resistor to monitor the output using the oscilloscope's Ch1.

6. Connect the Pin 9 of the B2960A's Digital I/O Port to the external trigger signal source and

the oscilloscope's Ch2 using the BNC cables, the N1294A-031, wiring, etc.
