Answers

1.

List the steps for determining the output frequency of a function generator.

  1. Select the range of frequency desired using the coarse (multiplier) switch(s).

  2. Dial in the desired frequency using the vernier dial.

2.

List the steps for calibrating the output of a signal generator.

  1. Select wave-form (if a function generator; if not, start with step 2).

  2. Select coarse (multiplier) range.

  3. Select fine (vernier) to desired frequency.

  4. Set output level to minimum.

  5. Connect generator into circuit.

  6. Connect oscilloscope, with calibrated vertical channel, across generator output.

  7. Adjust output level control and attenuator (if any) to desired level.

  8. If frequency is changed, check output level and readjust if necessary.
