5 FUNCT OUT connector
Female BNC connector is used as a multiple purpose output. It can be
programmed as trigger output, as video output during pulse modulation, and as output for the
low frequency function generator (standard on instruments with serial no. above xx00100).
6 Power switch
The power switch disconnects the signal generator from the DC input
completely, including the internal high-stability reference. After switching on this switch, the
signal generator enters into standby with the OCXO warming up and RF out switched off. The
red power LED (option HC only) on the front panel is turned on.
7 DC IN power receptacle
The power receptacle accepts a two-pin plug from the external 6 V DC
power adapter
8 GPIB (optional) connector
The connection of an external controller through General Purpose
Interface Bus (GPIB) connector allows you to configure an automatic measurement system.
This GPIB connector is used only for controlling the APPH6000 from an external controller. You
cannot control other devices from the APPH6000 through this GPIB connector.
10 REF IN (optional)
The reference signal input connector for phase-locking the measurement
signal from the APPH6000 to the external frequency reference signal. Inputting the reference
signal to this connector improves the accuracy and frequency stability of the measurement
signal from the APPH6000. Input frequency range is 1 200 MHz, 0 dBm
10 REF OUT (optional)
A connector for outputting the internal frequency reference signal from
the APPH6000. By connecting this output connector to the external reference signal input
connector of another device, the device can be phase-locked to the internal reference signal of
the APPH6000 and used under this condition. Output Signal is 10 MHz, +3 dBm
