Frank,
it is easy:
- Start FA-VA5
- Press and hold the left button (about 2 seconds) until the
main menu "Operating Mode" is shown
- Press middle button [Dwn] quickly three times to move down to
"Frequency Generator"
- Press left button [Sel] quickly to start the generator
- Press left button [D/S] quickly to cycle through the frequency
digits
- Press middle [-] or right [+] buttons quickly to step the
selected digit down or up
- Alternatively, press an hold middle [-] or right [+] buttons
for "autorepeat" on selected digit
- When finished, press and hold left button [D/S] to stop the
generator and return to the main menu
Please note that the output signal is a squarewave which contains
odd harmonics (i.e. 3f, 5f, 7f etc.)

Newbie just starting out -
I heard that the Fa-Va5 can be used like a signal generator ?
I looked at the operation manual and it looks like it has a very
steep learning curve.
Can anyone out there tell me how to just set up a single HF
frequency to be be generated ?
Appreciate any help
Frank
