Self Alignment
Opens a submenu to perform selftest and self-alignment of the instrument and to check
the results.
Self Test & Self Alignment ← Self Alignment
Checks if a self-alignment has been executed successfully. If not, the self-alignment is
executed. To start the process, press the "Start" softkey.
Self Alignment ← Self Alignment
Allows you to execute an internal self-alignment of the instrument. Alignment is only exe-
cuted when you press the "Start" softkey.
When data from several input channels is displayed at the same time, it may be necessary
to align the data in order to synchronize the time bases, amplitudes, and positions. This
is the case, for example, when strong temperature changes occur.
Start ← Self Alignment
Starts the internal self-calibration of the instrument. Status information is displayed on
the screen.
Abort ← Self Alignment
Aborts the internal self-calibration of the instrument.
Log File ← Self Alignment
The log file records the results of the self-alignment. You can set et the extend of the log
file and export it.

Probe Adjust
A R&S
RTM allows you to adjust a probe without further devices. Two connector pins are
located on the front panel. The left pin is on ground level. The right pin supplies a square
wave signal for the adjustment. In this menu you can choose between two frequencies
(1 kHz, 1 MHz) or allow the detection of an automatic setting by the instrument. The rise
time does not differ between the settings.
1kHz ← Probe Adjust
A square wave with a frequency of f = 1 kHz is generated at the "Probe Adjust" pin. Use
this setting to adjust the LF band of the probe.
1MHz ← Probe Adjust
A square wave with a frequency of f = 1 MHz is generated at the "Probe Adjust" pin. Use
this setting to adjust the HF band of the probe.
