Getting Started
Vertical Controls
• Turn the
large knobs
in the Vertical section to control the V/div setting for each
analog channel. The V/div setting is displayed in the upper left hand corner of
the status line at the top of the display.
Color coding matches analog channel inputs, vertical control knobs, and
waveform colors.
• Press the
[1]
key to display the channel 1 menu. Press again to turn the channel
on and off.
• Turn the
small knobs
to control the vertical offset position of the waveform,
moving the ground level up or down.
Trigger Controls
• Turn the
Trigger Level knob
to move the trigger level up and down. The trigger
level is displayed while it is adjusted. If the trigger level is above or below the
signal and the oscilloscope is in Auto trigger mode, the oscilloscope will force a
trigger and display an acquisition (waveform).
Auto trigger mode is useful when unsure of the exact waveform because forced
acquisitions are displayed, making it easy to better configure the oscilloscope’s
settings and trigger level.
