This  section  contains  the  information  needed  to  operate  the 

LBO-516  and  utilize  it  in  a  variety  of  basic  and  advanced 

measurement procedures. Included are the identification and function 

of  controls,  connectors,  and  indicators,  initial  startup  procedures, 

basic operating routines, and selected measurement applications. 

 

2-1. FUNCTION  OF  CONTROLS,  CONNECTORS,  AND 

INDICATORS 

Before turning on 

this instrument, familiarize yourself with the 

controls, connectors, indicators, and other features described in this 

section. The descriptions given below are keyed to the items called 

out in Figures 2-1 to 2-4. 

 

2-1-1 Display Block 

Refer to Figure 2-1 for reference (1) to (9). 

 

       POWER switch Push in to turn instrument power on 

and off 

 

       POWER lamp  Lamp lights when power is on 

 

       A INTEN control  To adjust the overall brightness of the 

CRT display. Clockwise rotation 

increases brightness 

 

       B INTEN control  Provides adjustment of CRT brightness 

during INTEN BY B interval and B 

timebase sweeps 

 

       FOCUS control  To attain maximum trace sharpness. 

Astigmatism is automatically adjusted. 

 

       ROTATION control  Provides screwdriver adjustment of 

horizontal trace alignment with regard 

to the CRT graticule lines
