    FRONT PANEL CONTROLS 1. POWER Switch . This is the main power switch. When turning the instrument on, there may be a delay of several seconds before the instrument appears to respond. 2. OVERLOAD Indicator . When the instrument is powered, this indicator is normally green, indicating normal operation.
  • Page 16: Rear Panel Controls

    REAR PANEL CONTROLS 1. AC POWER INPUT . An IEC-320 C14 three-pronged recessed male socket is provided on the back panel for AC power connection to the instrument. One end of the detachable power cord that is supplied with the instrument plugs into this socket. 2.
  • Page 17: General Information

    GENERAL INFORMATION BASIC CONTROL The AV-112D-PS is a DC-20 kHz variable-gain linear amplifier. The gain is variable from 0 to +25, and is adjusted by rotating the “GAIN” control. The required voltage input signal is applied at the “IN” connector.
  • Page 18 The output is thermally protected, and the average output power is monitored and limited. However, sudden short circuit conditions in the load may damage the output circuitry. Take care to avoid short circuit conditions! The input is protected against excessive voltages.
  • Page 19: Operational Check

    2) Set the signal generator to produce a +2V, 1 kHz waveform with a duty cycle of less than 50%. (The input impedance of the AV-112D-PS is 1 kΩ). Connect a cable from the SYNC connector of the signal generator to the TRIG input of an oscilloscope.
  • Page 20 5) Set the gain control to minimum (0.0). Turn on the amplifier and the signal generator. 6) Channel A should show a +2V, 1 kHz waveform from the signal generator. Rotate the gain control to its maximum setting. The Channel B waveform should increase to +50V, and have a shape similar to that of the Channel A waveform.
  • Page 21: Mechanical Information

    MECHANICAL INFORMATION TOP COVER REMOVAL If necessary, the interior of the instrument may be accessed by removing the four Phillips screws on the top panel. With the four screws removed, the top cover may be slid back (and off). Always disconnect the power cord and allow the instrument to sit unpowered for 10 minutes before opening the instrument.
  • Page 22: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE REGULAR MAINTENANCE This instrument does not require any regular maintenance. On occasion, one or more of the four rear-panel fuses may require replacement. All fuses can be accessed from the rear panel. See the “FUSES” section for details. CLEANING If desired, the interior of the instrument may be cleaned using compressed air to dislodge any accumulated dust.
