Troubleshooting

1000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Service Guide

✔

Ensure that the probe’s ground lead is securely connected to a ground point in

the circuit under test. For high-speed measurements, each probe’s individual

ground lead should also be connected to a ground point closest to the signal

point in the circuit under test.

✔

Check that the trigger setup is correct.

✔

A correct trigger setup is the most important factor in helping you capture the

data you desire. See the

User’s Guide

for information about triggering.

✔

Check that persistence in the Display menu is turned off, then press the

Clear Display

softkey.

✔

Press the

[Auto Scale]

key.

If you cannot see a channel

✔

Recall the default setup by pressing

[Default Setup]

. This will ensure that the

trigger mode is Auto.

✔

Check that the oscilloscope probe’s BNC connector is securely attached to the

oscilloscope’s input connector.

✔

Check that the probe clips are securely connected to points in the circuit under

test.

✔

Check that the circuit under test is powered on.

You may have pressed the

[Auto Scale]

key before an input signal was available.

Performing the checks listed here ensures that the signals from the circuit

under test will be seen by the oscilloscope. Perform the remaining checks in

this topic to make sure the oscilloscope channels are on, and to obtain an

automatic setup.

✔

Check that the desired oscilloscope channels are turned on.

Press the analog channel key until it is illuminated.

✔

Press the

[Auto Scale]

key to automatically set up all channels.
