FOURIER SYNTHESIZER
Manufacturer: Pasco Scientific
Model: 9307
Cost: $395 (1973)
Description
A signal generator that gives a 440 Hz fundamental and
the first 8 harmonics of the fundamental. Each harmonic has variable phase
and amplitude, and has a frequency accurate to better than 0.1%.

Operating Instructions
- Select the frequencies desired with the IN/OUT switches
- Select the wave shapes of the fundamental with the appropriate switches
- The usual output is labelled "10K OUTPUT". Be sure to keep the ground
terminals (Black, labelled with successively shorter horizontal
lines) the same in all components.
- Adjust the amplitude and phase for each frequency with the appropriate
switches and knobs in each column.
- The TRIGGER OUTPUT is intended for an oscilliscope trigger, if desired.
- Turn the unit ON
Note: The functions of this component are explored in detail in the experiment "Addition of Waves II: Fourier Analysis".
Precaution!
Push the RESET button each time before taking measurements.
