Introduction
Rear View
A. GNDU/ADC
Ground unit and A/D converter module. Always installed in the B1500A.
B. SPGU module
The semiconductor pulse generator unit (SPGU) has the Output 1 and Output 2
term
inals and
the following terminals to synchronize the operation between
SPGUs or with an external equipment.
Ref Out/Sync Out: Connect to the Ref In/Sync In of the slave SPGU.
Ref In/Sync In: Connect to the Ref Out/Sync Out of the master SPGU.
Trig Out: Connect to the trigger input terminal of the equipment synchronized
with the SPGU o
utput.
CAUTION Connect the Ref Out/In, Sync Out/In, and Trig Out terminals to the specified
terminal properly. Connecting to the other terminal may result in damage to the
SPGU.
