Unpacking
When you get a new MHS-5200A Series dual-channel DDS signal generator,
it is recommended that you follow these steps to inspect the instrument.
1. Check for transportation damage to the shipping box and packing ma-
terials. If there is serious damage, keep them until the machine and
accessories have passed the acceptance test.
2. Check the complete contents of the box. If the contents do not match
the following list or if the instrument is damaged, contact your dealer
or manufacturer.
• MHS-5200A Series dual-channel DDS signal generator
• 5VDC Power Adapter
• USB cable
• Signal coaxial cable, 2pc
• User Manual and Windows software on CD
3. Check the instrument for damage. If it is damaged or not working
properly, or fails performance tests, please contact your dealer or man-
ufacturer.

Overview
2.1
Instrument introduction
MHS-5200A series instruments use large scale integrated circuits: a high-
speed FPGA and a microcontroller unit. The internal circuitry uses surface
mount technology for greatly enhanced noise immunity and service life.
Display interface uses a 16x2 character LCD display, divided into two
lines. The top line shows the current frequency, while the following line
displays additional parameters and settings, corresponding to the front panel
key selections.
This instrument performs signal generation, waveform scanning, as well
as parameter measurement. It provides a great test and measurement solu-
tion to electronic engineers and technicians in teaching and research labora-
tories and production facilities.
