Agilent E6173A
Arbitrary Waveform
Generator (ARB)
Module
The Agilent E6173A Arbitrary Waveform Generator (formerly the Agilent
Z2471A) comes with Agilent E3750-61621 BNC Coax to 3X1 Cables. The
Agilent E6173A Arbitrary Waveform Generator is a register based,
two-channel isolated (both between channels and from ground) waveform
generator. Channel one is connected to the Agilent E6171 Measurement
Control Module in the factory default configuration of the Agilent TS-5400
System. The isolated inputs (J1 pins 5-6) may be amplified and used with
the V/I amp as an amplifier/current sensor. Channel two may be connected
by the customer directly to a UUT pin or it can be routed though the Agilent
E6171 Measurement Control Module using one of the unassigned inputs.
Switch/Jumper Settings Figure 2-9 shows the Agilent E6173A logical address switch with the switch
shown in the factory setting. Set the logical address to match the VXI
mainframe slot number for a one mainframe system. For a two mainframe
system, set to the slot number plus 16, if in mainframe #1, or to the slot
number plus 32, if in mainframe #2. Refer to “VXI Module Locations And
Logical Addresses” on page 32. The Interrupt Priority is always set to 1.
