Operation of Fluke 199C Oscilloscope:   
 
Automatic Operation
: This is the simplest and quickest way to capture a 
signal, knowing little about what you are measuring. 
 
A.

 

Turn scope on – circular button in lower left hand corner. 

B.

 

Push the yellow button labeled “Scope”. 

C.

 

Press the lime green Auto/Manual button. 

D.

 

Connect to where you wish to measure. 
1.

 

 The oscilloscope will auto-range to the correct voltage range, time 
scale, etc.  The trigger will go to “Auto Level”, and the trigger mode 
will go to “Automatic”.   

2.

 

Adjustments may be made from that point, such as changing the time 
scale, voltage scale, readings, using cursors and using screen capture.  

  

Use of “Screen Replay”   
 
A.

 

The scope meter will (automatically) capture up to 100 of the most recent 
scope screens.  (This is the case whether triggering for the scope is set to 
automatic trigger, one shot, or “on trigger”.  Each refresh will result in a 
screen stored in the memory.)  

B.

 

To look at what has been saved, press the “Replay” button. 
1.

 

A control panel will appear at the bottom of the screen, allowing you 
to scroll through each screen one at a time for a close look, scroll back 
one at a time, or hit play and rapidly go through all of the replay 
screens.   

2.

 

On any recalled screens you may use the cursors and zoom functions 
to get a better look at the waveform.   

3.

 

Individual Screens may be saved to one of the 15 memory positions. 

C.

 

If any scope adjustments are made (time scale, voltage scale, trigger    
level, etc), everything previously captured by the replay memory will be 
lost. 

 
 
Use of the Scope Memory 
 
A.

 

Press the light blue “hold/run” button to freeze the scope screen. The 
word “Hold” will appear in a box in the upper right hand side of the 
scope screen.
