soft key to select Int or Ext.
Explanation
The VB8300 generates waveforms by synchronizing to the internal or external clock
signal. You can select this clock signal.
Int
Generates waveforms by synchronizing to the internal clock signal.
Ext
Generates waveforms by synchronizing to the clock signal applied externally (external clock
signal).
• You can select the internal or external reference signal for the 10-MHz reference
signal on which the internal clock signal based. For the procedure of selecting the
10-MHz reference signal, see section 5.1.
• For the procedure of setting the frequency of the internal clock signal, see the next
section.
• When using an external clock signal, connect a BNC cable to the CLOCK IN
terminal on the rear panel and apply the signal.
• For detailed specifications of the external clock signal, see section 13.2.
Note
You cannot change the clock signal while waveform generation is in progress.
