6. How to Implement the Function Inspection   

Make a fast function check to verify the normal operation of the instrument. 
First, connect the oscilloscope with PC successfully, and then do the following 
steps: 

 

1. 

Click 

  in the software interface to restore to factory settings. The default 

attenuation coefficient set value of the probe in the software is 10X. 

2. 

Set the Switch in the Oscilloscope Probe as 10X and Connect the 

Oscilloscope with CH1 Channel.

   

Align the slot in the probe with the plug in the CH1 connector BNC, and then 
tighten the probe with rotating it to the right side.   

Connect the probe tip and the ground clamp to the connector of the probe 
compensator. 

3. 

Click 

  on the right top of the software interface to auto set.   

The square wave of 1 kHz  frequency and 3.3  V peak-peak value  will be 
displayed. 

 

4. 

Check CH2 by repeating Step 2 and Step 3.   

(P4017 needs to continue to check CH3 and CH4). 

7. How to Implement the Probe Compensation   

When connecting the probe with any input channel for the first time, make this 
adjustment to match the probe with the input channel. The probe which is not 
compensated or presents a compensation deviation will  result in the 
measuring error or mistake. For adjusting the probe compensation, please 
carry out the following steps:   

1.  Click 

  in the software interface  to show the function menu, choose 

"

Channel

". Click to select "

CH1

", set the "

Probe Rate

" in the menu as 

10

Set  the switch in the probe as 10X

 

and connect the probe with the CH1 

channel. If a probe hook tip is used, ensure that it keeps in close touch with 

the probe. Connect the probe tip with the signal connector of the probe 

compensator and connect the reference wire clamp with the ground wire 

connector of the probe connector, and then click 

  on the right top of the 

software interface to auto set.   

 

The set values of the probe switch are 1X and 10X
