MCS Test Equipment, Providing State of the Art Technology

The SG 1000 series of synthesized signal generators cover a wide range of carrier frequencies from 9 kHz to 1000 MHz with excellent spectral purity and comprehensive modulation facilities. Two different models of the SG 1000 series are available, an economical version with a switching time of 1 ms (BN 86204.000) between any frequencies and a high performance version with 1 μs / 15 μs (BN 86204.001) high-speed switching. Frequency changes less than 1 MHz are phase-continuous.

The operation of SG 1000 is very simple by a soft key menu selection of modes. All instrument settings and signal parameters can be entered by numeric keyboard, rotary control knob and increment-decrement keys. The step size may be varied by the user in a wide range. A backlight LCD display presents all measurement setup menus.

The SG 1000 stores up to 100 complete instrument settings in a non-volatile memory. Set up time is reduced by recalling previously stored settings.

Comprehensive modulation modes are provided for testing all types of receivers. In addition to AM, FM and PhM modulation the SG 1000 also provides pulse modulation which is required for EMI applications. An internal modulation oscillator from DC to 32 kHz (up to 100 kHz as option), an external signal or both of them can be used for modulation. The internal AF source generates a variety of waveforms, sine-wave, square-wave,

triangle and saw-tooth. The POCSAG signalling encoder (option) allows a one-box solution for pager testing with various modes, tone-only, numeric and alphanumeric. All ASCII characters are generated in the alphanumeric mode.

The high-speed switching version of SG 1000 includes a sweep & hopping option. Hopping programs - any kind of frequency sequences or high-speed digital sweeps – are running via a programmable and addressable memory bank. Up to 16,384 hopping locations can be loaded with individual frequency data. Loading is possible via front panel operation or from the IEEE-Bus interface. These hopping programs with free selectable start and stop address are running with the internal clock or controlled from an external clock.
