As soon as the probe is connected to the oscilloscope and the settings are adjusted,
the waveform is shown for the channel to which the probe is connected.
To display probe-specific settings and information:
► On the "Vertical" menu, select "Probe Setup" and select the correct channel tab.
2.1.3
Auto Zero
This procedure performs an automatic correction of the zero error displayed on the
oscilloscope's screen. The waveform is set to 0 V on the horizontal centerline of the
oscilloscope.
The zero error of the R&S
RT-ZS60 probe itself is very small, typically in the range
of a few hundred micro volts referred to the probe input. However, differences in
DUT and oscilloscope ground levels may cause larger zero errors to be displayed
on the oscilloscope's screen. If the DUT is not floating but ground-referenced, an
auto zero routine may improve the measurement results.
To perform the Auto Zero function using the micro button (see also:
1. Connect the probe to the R&S
RTO oscilloscope.
2. Configure the micro button function on the R&S
RTO:
"Vertical" menu > "Probe Setup" > "Ch" tab > "Micro button action" = 'Auto zero'.
3. Short the signal pin and the ground pin together and connect them to the ground
of the DUT.
4. Press the micro button.
