As the colours of the wires in main leads may not correspond with the colours marking identified in your plug/
appliance, proceed as follows:
•
The wire which is coloured Green & Yellow must be connected to the Earth terminal marked with the letter E
or by the earth symbol
or coloured Green or Green & Yellow.
•
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured Blue or Black.
•
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or P or
coloured Brown or Red.
•
If in doubt, consult the instructions provided with the equipment or contact the supplier. This cable/appliance
should be protected by a suitably rated and approved HBC mains fuse : refer to the rating information on the
equipment and/or user instructions for details. As a guide, cable of 0.75mm should be protected by a 3A or 5A
fuse. Larger conductors would normally require 13A types, depending on the connection method used.
•
Any moulded mains connector that requires removal /replacement must be destroyed by removal of any
fuse & fuse carrier and disposed of immediately, as a plug with bared wires is hazardous if engaged in a live
socket. Any rewiring must be carried out in accordance with the information detailed on this label.
PREPARATION FOR USE – UNPACKING
Your shipping carton should include the Function Generator, 1 meter long BNC to mini- alligator clip test lead, one
115V power cord, one 230V power cord, one spare fuse for 115V operation, one spare fuse for 230V operation, and
this manual. If any of the items are damaged or missing, immediately return the complete package to the place of
purchase for an exchange.
INTRODUCTION
The FG2C-UA and FG3C-UA Function Generators are stable low distortion instruments that generate sine, triangle,
and square waveforms in frequencies up to 3 MHz. The FG2C-UA has amplitude, offset, and duty cycle controls. The
outputs are Main(50Ω) and logic(TTL and CMOS). The FG3C-UA has the same capabilities plus internal Sweep(Log/
Linear), Modulation (AM/FM), external VCF/MOD and counter inputs and GCV output. The counter can be switched
to measure and display the frequency of an external signal up to 150 MHz.
