Step 5. Use Auto Scale
The oscilloscope has an auto scale feature that automatically sets the
oscilloscope controls for the input waveforms present.
Auto scale requires waveforms with a frequency greater than or equal to
50 Hz and a duty cycle greater than 1%.
1
Press the front panel
[Auto Scale]
key.
2
When the AUTO menu appears, press
[Menu On/Off]
to turn off the
menu.
The oscilloscope turns on all channels that have waveforms applied and
sets the vertical and horizontal scales appropriately. It also selects a
time base range based on the trigger source. The trigger source selected
is the highest- numbered channel that has a waveform applied.
(The
Undo
softkey in the AUTO menu lets you cancel the auto scale and
go back to the previous setup.)
