Marker Output Tests
These procedures check the accuracy of the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform
Generator marker output level.
Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment controls:
1. Use a 50 Ω BNC coaxial cable, a SMA(Ma)–BNC(Fe) adapter, a 50 Ω
precision terminator, and a BNC–to–dual banana adapter to connect the
AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator MARKER 1 OUT to the DMM
input connector (see Figure B-63).
Figure B-63: Marker output initial test hookup
2. Set the DMM controls as follows:
NOTE. Connect a 50
Ω
SMA terminator to the inverted marker output connector
during the marker output tests.
Equipment
required
A 50 Ω BNC coaxial cable, a 50 Ω precision terminator, a
SMA(Ma)–BNC(Fe) adapters, BNC (female)–to–dual banana adapter,
and a digital multimeter (DMM).
Prerequisites
The AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator must meet the prerequisites
listed on page B-61.
