1. AC Power Receptacle

The AC power cord receptacle accepts a three–pronged AC power cord that is supplied with the

signal generator. For details on line setting requirements and the power cord, see the Getting

Started Guide.

CAUTION To avoid the loss of data, GPIB settings, or current user instrument states that have not

been permanently saved to non- volatile memory, the signal generator should always be

powered down either via the instrument’s front panel power button or the appropriate

SCPI command.

Signal generators installed in rack systems and powered down with the

system rack power switch rather than the instrument’s front panel switch display a

Error - 310 due to the instrument not being powered down correctly.
