Safety
INSTRUMENTS et SYSTEMES certifies that this instrument has left the factory in
perfect working order, both in operation and safety.
This instrument has been designed and manufactured with great care to bring the best
possible safety to the user. If the instrument no longer functions properly or is damaged,
it must be immediately disconnected from the ac supply voltage, from the measured
circuit voltages and returned for repair.
Opening, maintenance, repair and calibration must be carried out by qualified and
approved personnel.
Warranty
Provided it is used under the recommended conditions, this instrument is guaranteed for
a two year period against manufacturing defects and component failure. This warranty
applies to material and workmanship. The instrument must be shipped back to an agreed
repair center. It will be repaired or replaced without charge. Warranty repairs are made
at the discretion of IES.
Maintenance
Your function generator does not need any specific maintenance. Whenever cleaning is
necessary, use a soft material. Avoid water or liquids that may penetrate inside.
Operation
Carefully unpack the instrument and make sure that it was not damaged during
transportation. Insert the power cord on the rear of the instrument and connect to the ac
supply. Switch power on by means of the power switch located on the rear panel.

Refer to the user manual
Changing a fuse
Before you change a fuse, disconnect the instrument from
all possible dangerous voltage!
The defective fuse must be replaced using a fuse of the same type and value :
 100 mA time delay fuse on the ac power mains input (T 100 mA)
Front Panel Description
The ISG1200 Function generator had 4inputs /outputs BNC:
 one BNC for Main Output (50impedance).
 one BNC for Trigger output TTL level.
 one BNC for Trigger/Modulation input.
 one BNC for Counter Input.
Function keys permits to select output signal parameters (Frequency, signal type,
modulation, level, offset) and to activate output ON/OFF.
The x10, 10 keys and the rotating encoder modify directly the display value (ex :
frequency, level etc.)
The 6 keys under the LDC display had the following functions:
 The 3 keys directly under the display select the corresponding parameter on the
display.
 MENU keys display main menu.
 STORE/RECALL keys display setup menu.
 COUNTER key switches the instrument to counter mode.
MENU, STORE/RECALL, COUNTER and OUTPUT keys are always active
whatever is the function selected.

Remote control
RS232 Connection:
When it is connected to a computer, your generator ISG1200 uses a protocol of software
dialogue rather (Xon - Xoff) than a control of material flow. Connection can thus be
carried out with simplest by a cord with three wire (Rxd, Txd and mass signal). The
connecting cable can be terminated at one end with a 9 pin connector and at the other end
with a 9 pin or 25 pins connector, this depends on the PC serial port connector. The
following connections should be followed:
It is better to use the cord provided with the instrument.

USB Connection:
To connect your generator ISG1200 to a computer, use the cord provided with the
instrument (type A-type B), there is 2 possibilities.
When the instrument is connected Windows ask for the drivers installation.
-To install the USB drivers : , insert the CD provided in the CDROM ( ex : D :/ ).
Follow the instructions of windows and indicates the following repertory : D:\Driver
USB\ D10620 \
-To install a Virtual Com Port (VCP) to use the instrument with different software as
the hyperterminal of Windows. For this, follow the instructions of Windows’s
installation. Insert the CD provided in the CDROM ( ex : D :/ ). Follow the windows
instructions and indicates the following repertory: D:\Driver USB\R9052154\
Once, the isntallation is complete, the instrument is ready to be control from the
computer.
Ethernet Connection: (OPTION)
Use a RJ45 cord to connect the instrument to the network.
Install the provided driver with the interface to set up the address of the ISG1200
