3.2.5 Preamplifier filtering
The Model 1801 has three analog filters with FAST,
MEDIUM, and SLOW responses respectively. These fil-
ters are in addition to the Model 2001 filter, which can
also be used with the preamplifier. See paragraph 3.9 of
the Model 2001 Operator’s Manual for details on Model
2001 filtering.
The following paragraphs discuss selecting the filter
response and also cover filter frequency response curves.
See the specifications in Appendix A for filter settling
times.
Selecting filter response
1. Press the CHAN key to bring up the preamplifier
configuration menu. The instrument will display the
following:
CONFIGURE PREAMP

CALIBRATION
2. Select FILTER, then press ENTER. The unit will dis-
play filter response selections:
SELECT PREAMP FILTER
FAST
MEDIUM
SLOW
3. Select the desired filter response, then press ENTER.
The FAST response filter provides the least noise
reduction and fastest response, while the SLOW
response filter gives the most noise reduction and
slowest response. Note that only the FAST response
filter is available with the ACV and FREQ functions.
4. Press EXIT to return to normal display.
Filter frequency response curves
Each of the preamplifier filters exhibits single-pole, low-
pass response. In addition to the filter selection, filter
response also depends on the selected range, as summa-
rized in Table 3-4. The table includes the -3dB response
point for each set of operating conditions, as well as a fil-
ter response number. The filter frequency response num-
ber corresponds to the equivalent curve number shown in
Figure 3-1. Note that the filter response curves shown are
for the preamplifier only and do not include Model 2001
response, which is affected by its own filter parameters as
well as the selected integration period.
