Característiques principals:

• Compatible with SDS1104X-E, SDS1204X-E, SDS2000X-E Series, and SDS5000X Series oscilloscopes.
• Capable of outputting Sine, Square, Ramp, Pulse, Noise, DC, and 45 built-in waveforms.
• Arbitrary waveforms can be accessed and edited using the EasyWave PC software.

3. Configuració

3.1 Connecting the SAG1021I

1. Ensure your compatible SIGLENT oscilloscope (e.g., SDS1000X-E, SDS5000X series) is powered off.
2. Locate the dedicated port for the external arbitrary waveform generator on your oscilloscope.
3. Carefully connect the SAG1021I module to this port. Ensure a secure connection.
4. Power on your oscilloscope. The oscilloscope should detect the connected SAG1021I module.

3.2 Activation License

The SAG1021I requires a specific Function Generator Activation License for your oscilloscope model to function correctly. This license is typically purchased separately. Please refer to your oscilloscope's documentation or SIGLENT's official website for details on obtaining and activating the correct license (part number ending with -FG).

4. Instruccions de funcionament

4.1 Basic Waveform Generation

Once the SAG1021I is connected and activated, you can access its functions through your oscilloscope's interface. Navigate to the waveform generator menu on your oscilloscope. From there, you can select and configure various standard waveforms:

• Ona sinusoïdal: Generate sinusoidal signals with adjustable frequency, amplitude, and offset.
• Ona quadrada: Produce square wave signals with configurable frequency, amplitude, duty cycle, and offset.
• Ramp Onada: Create ramp (triangle/sawtooth) waveforms.
• Pulse Wave: Generate pulse signals with precise control over pulse width and delay.
• Soroll: Output random noise signals.
• DC: Provide a stable DC voltage sortida.
• Built-in Waveforms: Access a library of 45 pre-defined waveforms for various applications.

4.2 Arbitrary Waveform Generation

For custom waveform creation, utilize the EasyWave PC software. This software allows you to design, edit, and upload arbitrary waveforms to the SAG1021I module. Refer to the EasyWave software manual for detailed instructions on waveform design and transfer.

5. Manteniment

The SAG1021I is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance and longevity:

• Neteja: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the device. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which may damage the casing.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the module in a clean, dry environment away from extreme temperatures, humidity, and direct sunlight when not in use.
• Manipulació: Handle the module with care to prevent physical damage to the connectors or internal components.

6. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your SAG1021I, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Mòdul no detectat: Ensure the SAG1021I is securely connected to the oscilloscope's dedicated port. Verify that the oscilloscope is powered on and its firmware is up to date.
• Problemes de funcionalitat: Confirm that the correct Function Generator Activation License has been installed and activated for your specific oscilloscope model. Without the proper license, the module's features will be unavailable.
• Arbitrary Waveforms Not Working: If you experience issues with user-created arbitrary waveforms, especially with specific oscilloscope models (e.g., SDS2202X-E), ensure you are using the latest version of EasyWave software and oscilloscope firmware. If the problem persists, contact SIGLENT technical support for assistance, as compatibility can sometimes be model-specific despite general claims.
• Sense senyal de sortida: Check the BNC cable connections from the SAG1021I to your measurement device. Verify that the waveform generator is enabled and configured correctly on the oscilloscope.
• Rendiment general: For any unexpected behavior, consult the detailed user manual for your specific SIGLENT oscilloscope model, as it often contains integrated instructions for external modules.
