3. REF A and REF B allow front panel selection of either of two reference input signals When the INT 1 KHz input is selected the unit becomes a synthesizer where the setting of the numerator and denominator multiplies and divides the crystal controlled one kilohertz input signal One of the applications of this instrument is for use with turbine engines where the shaft frequency is not directly available but a signal usually derived from a tachometer or a multi toothed gear attached to the shaft provides a frequency related to the fundamental shaft This related signal can be connected to the input of the 360C the NUMERATOR and DENOMINATOR switch set to multiply by the proper ratio to provide the actual fundamental shaft frequency at the ratio output This frequency can then be used as the reference input of a tracking filter such as the 530 B and the filtered output can provide for example shaft vibration at fundamental shaft frequency as the engine is increased and decreased in speed Refer as needed to the block diagram in Figure 1 2 Astronics Test Systems Introduction 1 1 360C User Manual Publication No 980988 Rev A Specifications REF A Input Impedance 100 K ohms Frequency Range 5 Hz 50 kHz Level 30 millivolts P P to 300 volts P P Any periodic waveform sine triangular Waveform square or pulse Pulse width must be at least 10 us Connector Isolated BNC REF B Input Impedance 100 K o
