only).
Return
the
LEVEL
control
to
midrange
and
the
amplifier
unit
to
the
seek
mode.
26.
Disconnect
the input
signal. Note
that

readout
is
on.
Re
connect
the

readout
comes
on
briefly and
then
goes
off
again.
Also note
that
the
display
remains
stable
and
the
Auto
Trigger light
has
come
on. Return
the
LEVEL
control
to
midrange.
This
step
illustrates
that
the
unit
auto
matically
seeks
a
stable
display
when
in
the
Seek
Mode.
Press
the
SEEK button and
note
that
the
Auto
Trigger
light
goes
off,
indicating
that
the
display
is again
triggered
from
the
applied
signal in
the
internal AC
mode.
29.
Press
the
MAN
button.
The
display
should
be
stable.
Turn
the
LEVEL
control
throughout
its
range.
Note
that
the
display
disappears
and
the
NOT
TRIG'D readout comes
on
after
several
degrees
of
rotation
in
either
direction from the
center
point.
Return
the
LEVEL
control
to
midrange.
30.
Set
the
Trigger
Function
switch
to
EXT-AC.
Note
that
the
NOT
TRIG
’
D
readout
comes
on.
Press
the
SEEK
button
and
note
that
a
stable,
automatically
triggered
display
(Auto
Trigger
light is
on)
is
presented
even though
the
unit
is set
for
external
triggering
and
no
trigger
signal is
connected
to
the
EXT
TRIG
INPUT
connector.
31.
Connect
the
calibrator
signal
to
both
the
amplifier
unit
input
connector
and
the
EXT
TRIG
INPUT
connector
with
a
BNC
T
connector and
two
BNC
cables.
32.
Set
the
indicator
oscilloscope
calibrator
for
1.0
volts
output.
33.
Press
the
MAN
button.
The trigger
controls
should
operate
as
described
for
INT-AC.
Operation in
the
EXT-DC
position
is
much
the
same
also
except
the
display
is
trig
gered
at
a
specific
DC
level
as
selected
by
the
LEVEL
con
trol.
Set
the
LEVEL
control
for a
stable display.
34.
Press
the

should
be
stable
and
the
Auto
Trigger
light
should
be
off,
indicating
that
the
unit
is
cor
rectly
triggered
in
the
external
AC
mode.
Disconnect
the
signal
from
the
EXT
TRIG
INPUT
connector
and
note that
the
display
remains
stable
and
the
Auto
Trigger
light
comes
on
(Seek
Mode
only).
35.
Disconnect
the
input
signal
and
set
the
Trigger Func
tion
switch
to
INT-AUTO.
Remote
Seek
36.
If
a
remote-seeking
probe
is available, the
remote
seek
feature
of
this
instrument
can
be
demonstrated.
Con
nect
the
probe
to
the
automatic/programmable amplifier
unit
input
connector
and
the
remote
seek
lead
to
the
remote
seek
connector.
37.
Connect
the
probe
tip
to
a signal source
(such as
the
calibrator
output).
Press
the seek
button
on
the
probe.
Note
that
both
the
amplifier
unit
and
the
Type
3B5
switch
to
the
Seek
Mode
and
a
stable,
correct
display
is
shown.
Now
connect
the probe
to
a
signal
with
a
different
amplitude
and
frequency
within
the
capabilities
of
the
instrument.
Press
the
probe
seek
button
and
note
that
a
correct
display
is again
presented.
External
Program
38.
If
a programmer is
available,
the
external
program
mable
features
of
this
instrument
can
be
demonstrated.
Connect
the programmer to
the
front-panel
PROGRAM
connectors.
Set
up
the
desired
program(s)
and
turn
the
programmer
on.
Note
that
the
EXT button
lights
and
the
readout
panel
indicates
the
programmed
settings
rather
than
the
front-panel control
settings.
39.
Turn
the
programmer
off
or
disconnect
the
program
connections.
Note
that
the
unit
returns to
the
Manual
Mode
as
indicated
