Clock Source
The 4060B Series provides an internal 10MHz clock source. It also can accept external clock source form the [10 MHz
In/Out] connector at the rear panel. It can also output the clock source from the [10 MHz In/Out] connector for other
devices.
Press Utility Page 1/2 Clock Source to select “Internal” or “External”.
If “External” is selected, the instrument will detect whether a valid external clock signal is input from the [10MHz In/Out]
connector at the rear panel. If not, the prompt message “No external clock source!” would be displayed and the clock
source would be switched to “Internal”.
15.1 Sync methods for two or more instruments:
Connect the [10MHz In/Out] connector of generator A (using internal clock) to the [10MHz In/Out] connector of
generator B (using external clock) and set the output frequencies of A and B as a same value to realize synchronization.
15.2 Synchronization among multiple instruments
Divide the 10MHz clock source of a generator (using internal clock) into multiple channels, and then connect them to
the [10MHz In/Out] connectors of other generators (using External clock), and nally set the output frequencies of all
the generators as a same value to realize synchronization.
