TEST INSTRUMENT SAFETY WARNING Normal use of test equipment exposes you to a certain amount of danger from electrical shock because testing must sometimes b e performed where exposed voltage is present. An electrical shock causing 10 milliamps of current to pass through the heart wil l stop most human heartbeats.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS FRONT PANEL (Refer to Fig. 1) POWER Switch. Turns power on and off. RANGE Switch. Selects output frequency range. Seven ranges from 1 Hz to 10MHz. Switch indicates maximum frequency of range and is adjusted with COARSE FREQUENCY control to 0.1 times the maximum. For example, if the 100 kHz range is selected, the output frequency can be adjusted from 10kHz to 100kHz.

Figure 1. Model 4017A Front Panel. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The B+K Precision Model 4017A Sweep/Function Generator is a versatile instrument, capable of producing a variety of output waveforms over a broad range of frequencies. To gain a working familiarity with the unit, it is recommended that it be connected initially to an oscilloscope, so that the effects of the various controls on the output waveforms can be observed.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS . A superimposed DC component can be added to the output signal by engaging the DC OFFSET switch (14) to enable operation of the DC OFFSET control (5). Rotation of this control adds a positive or negative DC component to the output signal.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 6. Remember that the output signal swing of the generator is limited to ±10 volts open circuited or ±5 volts into 50 Ω, and applies to the combined peak-to-peak signal and DC offset. Clipping occurs slightly above these levels. Fig. 3 illustrates the various operating conditions encountered when using the DC offset.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS TTL/CMOS OUTPUT 1. The end frequency of the sweep (lowest frequency) can be adjusted by rotating the SWEEP WIDTH control (16). This The TTL/CMOS output jack provides a fast rise time square adjustment should generally be made after setting the starting wave output.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 2. Set the starting frequency with the COARSE control. Damage of this type usually occurs by accidentally Apply a positive DC voltage to the VCG/SWEEP input connecting the output of the function generator to a voltage jack (9) to decrease the frequency. A voltage from 0 to in the equipment under test.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Figure 5. Circuit for Protection of TTL Output. FUNCTION GENERATOR APPLICATIONS GUIDEBOOK B+K Precision offers a “Guidebook to Function Generators” which describes numerous applications for this instrument, including hook- up details. It also includes a glossary of function generator terminology and an explanation of function generator circuit op eration. It maybe downloaded for free off our website at www.bkprecision.com.
MAINTENANCE WARNING The following instructions are for use by qualified service INSTRUMENT REPAIR SERVICE personnel only. To avoid electrical shock, do not perform servicing other than contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so. Because of the specialized skills and test equipment required for instrument repair and calibration, many Remember that ac line voltage is present on line voltage input customers prefer to rely upon B+K PRECISION for...

714-921-9095 TEST INSTRUMENT SAFETY (continued from inside front cover) 6. Some equipment with a two-wire ac power cord, including some with polarized power plugs, is the “hot chassis” type. This includes most recent television receivers and audio equipment. A plastic or wooden cabinet insulates the chassis to protect the custom er. When the cabinet is removed for servicing, a serious shock hazard exists if the chassis is touched.
