  • Page 6: Warranty & Repair

    Warranty & Repair Warranty The Model 9002 Instrument is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of shipment. During the warranty period, Frequency Devices Inc. will, at its option, repair or replace products that prove to be defective.
  • Page 7: Section 1 - Introduction

    1.2 - Applications The Model 9002 filter can be used in any application where frequency filtration is required. A wide range of frequen- cies, input voltage ranges, and pre- and post-amplification stages enables these filters to interconnect with most laboratory equipment as well as standard audio and radio frequency test equipment.

    Sensor 2 Data Out 2 Figure 1.1 Model 9002 in a Typical Setup When operating the filter with a remote controller, care must be taken to follow the programming rules presented in Section 5 of this manual. In the remote mode, the unit looks at the IEEE-488 bus for its operating commands.
  • Page 9: Section 2 - Instrument Description

    2.2 - Input/Output Characteristics The Model 9002 is contained in a single electronic chassis and is designed to interface directly with a remote controller fitted with an IEEE-488 interface card. Connection to the controller is via an IEEE connector on the rear panel as shown in Figure 2.1b.
  • Page 10: Filter Properties

    Figure 2.2 IEEE Connector Identification The signals to be filtered are introduced to the Model 9002 via front and rear panel coaxial BNC connectors as seen in Figure 2.1a. Input impedance is one megohm resistive shunted by a fixed 47 picofarad capacitance. Signal inputs can be up to 20 volts p-p without clipping.

    3.1 - Unpacking and Inspection When Model 9002 is received, inspect the cartons for visible external damage. If there is obvious physical damage, we suggest that the carrier’s agent be present during unpacking. Do not destroy the shipment container during opening so that it may be used for future shipment of the device.
