Line Settings
The signal generator has an autoranging line voltage input. The available ac power source
must meet the following conditions:
Voltage: 100/115 volts nominal (90-132 volts)
230/240 volts nominal (198-254 volts)
Frequency: for 100/115 volts: 50/60 Hz nominal
for 230/240 volts: 50/60 Hz nominal
Power: 200 watts maximum
CAUTION Damage to the signal generator may result if the supply voltage is not within
the specified range.
Connecting the AC Power Cord
This is a Safety Class 1 Product provided with a protective earth ground incorporated into the
power cord. The front panel switch is only a standby switch; it is not a line switch. The ac
power cord is the disconnecting device that disconnects the signal generator mains circuits
from the mains supply. Alternatively, an external switch or circuit breaker, readily identifiable
and easily reached by the operator, may also be used as a disconnecting device.
Perform the following steps when connecting the ac power cord:
WARNING Personal injury may occur if there is any interruption of the protective
conductor inside or outside of the signal generator. Intentional
interruption is prohibited.
CAUTION Damage to the signal generator may result without adequate earth grounding.
Always use the three-prong ac power cord supplied with the signal generator.
See, “AC Power Cord Localization” on page 9 for a list of available power cords.
1. Ensure that the power cord is not damaged.
2. Install the signal generator so that one of the following items is readily identifiable and
easily reached by the operator: ac power cord, alternative switch, or circuit breaker.
3. Insert the mains plug into a socket outlet provided with a protective earth grounding.
