TPS <strong>7.2.1.3</strong><br />

Measuring instruments<br />

domain. This will be used a lot in the following<br />

experiments.<br />

Experiment procedure<br />

Set up the experiment as specified in Fig. 2.3-1.<br />

Set a square-wave signal with A R = 5 V and<br />

f R = 2 kHz on the function generator. The TTL input<br />

A of the frequency counter remains permanently<br />

connected to the analyzer via bridging<br />

plugs. In order to test the signal frequency f R plug<br />

a connecting lead into the analog input and actuate<br />

the toggle switch.<br />

Record the spectrum of the square-wave signal in<br />

the frequency range of approx. 1.5 kHz....20 kHz.<br />

1. Manual operation with the analog voltmeter.<br />

Connect an analog voltmeter 10 V DC to the<br />

analyzer output.<br />

When V 1 = 2, 5, 10 the input stage is overdriven,<br />

the OVER LED lights up and the<br />

measurement results are falsified.<br />

Now record the spectrum of the square-wave<br />

signal by starting the VCO in SCAN MODE<br />

RUN. In the spectral energy range the output<br />

signal demonstrates a brief increase. Then<br />

stop the VCO and manually adjust it around<br />

the frequency of the spectral line using the<br />

pushbutton up/down. Read off the spectral<br />

amplitude S(n) on the voltmeter. In this manner<br />

enter all the amplitudes S(n), the index n<br />

and the corresponding frequencies f into the<br />

Table 2.3-1. Also the analyzer settings are to<br />

be noted down there. Plot the spectrum in a<br />

graph in Diagram 2.3-1.<br />

Discuss your results.<br />

2. Automatic operation with the XY recorder<br />

or the storage oscilloscope.<br />

In automatic operation the scanning process<br />

is performed without interruption. Also the<br />

gain settings V 1 , V 2 remain unchanged.<br />

2.1 Using an XY recorder<br />

Connect the X+ input of the recorder to the X<br />

socket of the analyzer. Connect the Y+ input<br />

of the recorder to the analyzer output; X–,<br />

Y– to earth. Both recorder axes have to be<br />

calibrated. The X-axis is set to f max . The Y-<br />

axis is aligned to the highest spectral amplitude<br />

(test it out!). The analyzer cycle is<br />
