Page 12: Reference Operation
Reference Operation This section describes several advanced functions. The variety of swept available from the function generator make it especially useful for such applications as test servo-system or amplifier response, distortion and stability. It can use for FM generator, frequency multiplication, or as a variable, beat- frequency oscillator. -
Page 13: Maintenance
Maintenance Warning! To avoid electrical shock or damaging this instrument, never get water into the meter. Cleaning Before cleaning this instrument, make sure the power is switched in OFF position and the power cord is disconnected from the AC outlet. To clean the meter, wipe the dirty parts with gauze or soft cloth soak with diluted neutral detergent. -
