Welcome

Thank you for purchasing a Teledyne LeCroy WaveStation.

The WaveStation is a function/arbitrary waveform generator that allows

you to simultaneously create and view custom waveforms. You can control

WaveStation through USB-GPIB and/or USBTMC interfaces, and even

transfer waveforms to and from your WaveStation using the WaveStation

PC Software.

This WaveStation Operator's Manual covers how to use WaveStation

models 2012 10 MHz, 2022 25 MHz, and 2052 50 MHz. The material is

organized in the following manner:

Package Contents and Safety Requirements, along with the

Hardware and I/O description.

Getting Started with WaveStation, a general overview of the

standard controls on the front panel and how they correspond with

the display.

How to create Waveform Types, Modulated Waveforms, Sweep

Waveforms, and Burst Waveforms. Additional sections explain how

to use Save/Recall, Utility, and Help sections.

How to control WaveStation with USB-GPIB (using the USB-GPIB

Adapter) and/or USBTMC.

How to use the WaveStation Software to send and receive

waveforms over a PC connection with your WaveStation.

Reference, including where to find regularly updated Specifications

and other details.

We truly hope these materials provide increased comprehension when

using Teledyne LeCroy's fine products.

Sincerely,

David C. Graef

Safety Instructions

This section contains instructions that must be observed to keep the

instrument operating in a correct and safe condition. You are required to

follow generally accepted safety procedures in addition to the precautions

specified in this section. The overall safety of any system incorporating

this instrument is the responsibility of the assembler of the system.

Symbols

These symbols may appear on the instrument's front or rear panels and in

its documentation to alert you to important safety considerations.

CAUTION of damage to instrument, or WARNING of hazard to

health. Attend to the accompanying information to protect

against personal injury or damage. Do not proceed until

conditions are fully understood and met.

WARNING. Risk of electro-shock.

Measurement ground connection.

Frame or chassis connection.

Safety (protective) ground connection.

Power on/off.

Precautions

Use proper power cord. Use only the power cord shipped with this

instrument and certified for the country of use.

Maintain ground. This product is grounded through the power cord

grounding conductor. To avoid electric shock, connect only to a grounded

mating outlet.

Connect and disconnect properly. Do not connect/disconnect probes or

test leads while they are connected to a voltage source.

WaveStation

922700-00 Rev A

Observe all terminal ratings. Do not apply a voltage to any input that

exceeds the maximum rating of that input. Refer to the markings next to

the BNC terminals for maximum allowed values.

Use only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or

explosive atmospheres.

Use indoors only.

Keep product surfaces clean and dry.

Do not block the cooling vents. Leave a minimum six-inch (15 cm) gap

between the instrument and the nearest object. Keep the underside clear

of papers and other objects.

Do not remove the covers or inside parts. Refer all maintenance to

qualified service personnel.

Do not operate with suspected failures. Do not use the product if any part

is damaged. Obviously incorrect measurement behaviors (such as failure to

calibrate) might indicate impairment due to hazardous live electrical

quantities. Cease operation immediately and sequester the instrument

from inadvertent use.

Operating Environment

Temperature: 0° C to 40° C

Humidity: Maximum relative humidity 80% (non-condensing) for

temperatures up to 30° C decreasing linearly to 50 % relative humidity at

40° C.

Altitude: Up to 10,000 ft (3,048 m) at or below 30° C.

Cooling

The WaveStation relies on forced air cooling with internal fans and vents.

Take care to avoid restricting the airflow to any part of the instrument.

Around the sides and rear, leave a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) between

the instrument and the nearest object. At the bottom, the feet (up or

down) provide adequate clearance.

CAUTION. Do not block vents. Always keep the area beneath the

instrument clear of paper and other items.
