Frequency Transmitter Verification

U1401B User's and Service Guide
For some frequency transmitters, you can use the square
wave output as a source simulator and measure the current
from the transmitter output.
1 Turn the rotary switch to the
2 Press MODE to cycle through duty cycle, pulse width,
output level, and frequency adjustments.
3 Set the output frequency to 150 Hz and duty cycle to 50%.
4 Connect the probe leads between the input terminals of
the U1401B and the output terminals of the transducer.
5 Connect the alligator leads between the output terminals
of the U1401B and the input terminals of the transducer.
Make sure the polarity is correct.
6 Press OUTPUT to output the signal.
7 Read the display. Check the measured current to
determine whether the frequency is consistent with the
transducer specifications.
8 Change the square wave frequency and monitor the
measured current on the display.
