Rear Panel Controls - Avtech AV-1011-C-OP1B Instructions Manual

REAR PANEL CONTROLS
. AC POWER INPUT. A three-pronged recessed male connector is provided on the
back panel for AC power connection to the instrument. Also contained in this
assembly is a 1.0A slow blow fuse and a removable card that can be removed and
repositioned to switch between 120V AC in and 240V AC in.
. 2.0A SB. This fuse protects the output stage if the output duty cycle rating is
exceeded.
. GATE. This TTL-level (0 and +5V) logic input can be used to gate the triggering of
the instrument. This input can be either active high or active low, depending on the
front panel settings or programming commands. (The instrument triggers normally
when this input is unconnected).
. IRIG. This TTL-level (0 and +5V) logic input can be used to trigger the instrument, if
the instrument is set to triggering externally. The instrument triggers on the rising
edge of this input. The instrument can also be set such that the output pulse width
tracks the pulse width on this input, or the output pulse width can be set
independently.
. AMP. The output amplitude can be set to track the DC voltage on this input. This
input voltage may range between 0 and +10 Volts, which corresponds to minimum
and maximum output amplitudes, respectively. (In normal operation, the output
amplitude is set by the front-panel controls or via the computer interface.)
. GPIB Connector. A standard GPIB cable can be attached to this connector to allow
the instrument to be computer-controlled. See the "OP1B Interface Programming
Manual" for more details on GPIB control.
