• Recall Defaults
  • Select Frequency A.
  • Select 50 Ω input impedance, 1x attenuation, Manual Trigger Levels and Absolute Trigger Level A 0V.
  • Select Preamp ON
  • Connect a signal from a HF generator to a BNC power splitter.
  • Connect the power splitter to Input A of your counter and an oscilloscope. Set the input impedance to 50 Ω on the oscilloscope.
  • Adjust the amplitude according to the following table. Read the level on the oscilloscope. The timer/counter should display the correct frequency.
  • Repeat the measurements and input settings above for Input B, D, and E.
