Performance Verification & Adjustment Procedures

Page 16 of 19

Procedure #: CP1005 Revision: A

Test Scope Set-Up:

Volts/Div

Time/Div

0.2 mSec

Trig Slope

Connect MAIN OUTPUT to test scope vertical input via coax cable and 50 ohm
terminator.

Adjust R130 for approximately 10.5 V p-p output display on test scope (5.25

Div).

Set RANGE to 1M and FREQ DIAL to 0.3.

Note the test scope display amplitude.

Observe the display amplitude for > 10 V while turning the FREQ DIAL from 0.3

to 3.0.

Set the FREQ DIAL to 3.0. Adjust C55 for the same amplitude as observed in
step f.

Repeat steps a thru h for the Sine Wave function. In step d, adjust R74 for 10.8
V. In step h, use C26.

Set FUNCTION to Square Wave, RANGE to 1K and FREQ DIAL to 3.0.

Adjust R56 for approximately 10.8 V on the test scope display (5.4 Div).

Sine Wave Distortion

Connect the MAIN OUTPUT to the Distortion Analyzer via a coax cable and a 50
ohm terminator.
