Set both CH1 and CH2 COUPLING to GND. 

5.

 

Use the CH1 and CH2 POSITION controls to align both traces on the 

center graticule. 

6.

 

Open the CH2 INV by pressing and holding the pushbutton. 

7.

 

Set to the ADD mode by pressing the ALT/CHOP/ADD pushbutton 

briefly. 

8.

 

Set both CH1 and CH2 COUPLING to DC. 

9.

 

The figure 5-4 below shows a satisfactory display. The display will 

show a flat trace located on the center gracticule that confirms the 

channel balance and ADD offset function.

5-5.Basic Operation 

Displaying CH1 or CH2 

To display the signal from a signal channel, pressing briefly the CH1 or 

CH2 pushbutton to set the oscilloscope to channel 1 or channel 2. 

Displaying CH1 and CH2 

To display both signals at the same time, proceed the following steps: 

1.Set the CH1 and CH2 on. The figure 5-5 below shows two synchronous 

waveforms in the both modes. 

2.Adjust the CH1 or CH2 POSITION control to position the two 

waveforms. 

3.Set the ALT/CHOP/ADD button to CHOP mode if the waveforms are 

flickering.
