Amplitude, Offset Accuracy and Rise Time Tests (Direct DA Out), (except option 02)
These procedures check the accuracy of the AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform
Generator direct waveform outputs; amplitude and offset.
Check Amplitude
and
DC Offset
Do the following steps to install the test hookup and set the test equipment controls:
1. Use a 50 Ω BNC coaxial cable, an SMA(Ma)–BNC(Fe) adapter, a 50 Ω
precision terminator, and a BNC–to–dual banana adapter to connect the
AWG710 Arbitrary Waveform Generator CH1 output to the DMM input
connector (see Figure B-44).

2. Set the DMM controls as follows:
3. Push UTILITY (front–panel)!System (bottom)!Factory Reset
