5. Setup

5.1. Charging the Device

Before initial use, fully charge the FG-300. Connect the provided USB charging cable to the Type-C charging port on the back of the device and plug the other end into a standard USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port. The display will indicate charging status. A full charge typically takes a few hours.

5.2. Powering On/Off

  • To Power On: Long press the power switch button (indicated by a power symbol on the keypad) for approximately 3 seconds. The LCD display will light up.
  • To Power Off: Long press the power switch button for approximately 3 seconds. The display will turn off.

6. Operation

6.1. Setting Frequency

The FG-300 allows precise frequency adjustment from 0.0001Hz to 200KHz.

  1. Ensure the device is powered on.
  2. Use the numerical keys on the keypad to input the desired frequency. For example, to set 7.83Hz, press '7', '.', '8', '3'.
  3. Press the 'Enter' key (indicated by a checkmark symbol) to confirm the frequency input. The display will update to show the new frequency.

6.2. Switching Waveforms

The device supports various waveform outputs. To change the waveform:

  • Press the 'Waveform switching' button (indicated by a waveform symbol) on the keypad.
  • Each press will cycle through available waveforms (e.g., Sine, Square, Triangle, Pulse). The current waveform type will be displayed on the LCD.

6.3. Adjusting Brightness

The FG-300 allows adjustment of both the screen backlight and the signal LED brightness.

  • Screen Backlight: Press the 'Screen backlight adjustment' button (indicated by a sun symbol) to cycle through brightness levels.
  • Signal LED Brightness: Press the 'Signal lamp brightness adjustment' button (indicated by a light bulb symbol) to adjust the intensity of the indicator LEDs.

6.4. Setting Timed Shutdown

To conserve battery or for specific applications, you can set a timed shutdown:

  • Press the 'Timing shutdown' button (indicated by a clock symbol) on the keypad.
  • Use the numerical keys to input the desired shutdown time in hours.
  • Press 'Enter' to confirm. The display will show the remaining time until shutdown.

6.5. Automatic Settings Save

All setting parameters, including frequency, waveform, brightness, and timed shutdown, are automatically saved when the device is powered off. There is no need to manually save settings for the next startup.

6.6. Connecting External Devices

  • 3.5mm Audio Output: Connect headphones or an external speaker to the 3.5mm audio output jack for audible frequency output. Note that the device does not have a built-in volume control for this output; use headphones with integrated volume control if needed.
  • 4-Pin Signal Output: The device includes a 4-pin signal output interface for connecting to other electronic circuits or test equipment. A corresponding cable with loose wires is provided for custom connections. Refer to the specifications for output voltage details.

7. Maintenance

7.1. Cleaning

Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the casing or display.
