SECTION  6

Introduction

A  complete  procedure  for  checking  the  operational 

standards  and  calibration  of  the  Type  109  Pulse  Generator 
is  provided  in  this  section  of  the  manual.

Apparent  troubles  in  the  instrument  are  occasionally  the 

result  of  an  improper  adjustment.  Consequently,  calibration 
checks  should  be  an  integral  part  of  any  troubleshooting 
procedure.  Abnormal  indications  occurring  during  calibra­
tion  checks  will  often  aid  in  isolating  troubles  to  a  definite 
circuit  or  stage.

In  the  instructions  that  follow,  the  steps  are  arranged  in 

proper  sequence  for  a  complete  check  and  calibration  of 

the  instrument.  Each  numbered  step  contains  the  informa­
tion  required  to  make  one  check  or  adjustment  or  a  series  of 

related  checks  or  adjustments.  The  steps  are  arranged  to 
avoid  unnecessary  repetition  of  checks  or  adjustments.

Test  equipment  used  in  a  particular  step  should  be  left 

connected  at  the  end  of  that  step  unless  instructions  state 
otherwise.  Sim ilarly,  controls  not  mentioned  are  assumed  to 
be  in  positions  they  were  in  at  the  conclusion  of  the  pre­
ceding  step.

Equipment  Required

The  following  equipment  is  required  to  perform  a  com­

plete  calibration  of  the  Type  109.

any  deflection  factor  up  to  20  volts  per  division.  (The 

Tektronix  Type  519  (conventional)  Oscilloscope  can 

also  be  used  as  an  excellent  substitute.)
