Setting the Vertical Sensitivity
1.
Press the
V/DIV key
of the desired channel to display the vertical
sensitivity setting menu. Verify that the “
CAL
” setting is highlighted.
2.
Turn the rotary knob to set the desired sensitivity (V/div).
3.
In case you want to adjust the setting in smaller steps, press the
“
Variable
” soft key.
4.
Turn the rotary knob to set the desired sensitivity.
Explanation
Setting the range and probe attenuation
The V/div setting range varies depending on the attenuation of the probe used, as shown
below.
Probe attenuation
Setting range*
1:1
1 mV to 5 V/div (for DL1520/DL1520L, 2 mV to 5 V/div)
10:1
10 mV to 50 V/div (for DL1520/DL1520L, 20 mV to 50 V/div)
100:1
100 mV to 500 V/div (for DL1520/DL1520L, 200 mV to 500 V/div)
1000:1
1 V to 5000 V/div (for DL1520/DL1520L, 2 V to 5000 V/div)
* V/div can be set in multiples of 1, 2 and 5, e.g. 1 V/div
→
2 V/div
→
5 V/div.
Variable mode
When “Variable” is highlighted, V/div can be set in fine steps as shown below.

* The above values are given for a probe attenuation of 10:1. They will be 1/10 of the value shown
when the attenuation is 1:1, 10 times the value shown when it is 100:1, and 100 times the value
shown when it is 1000:1.
Note
If the RESET key is pressed to reset V/div setting, V/div will be set to the maximum possible level.
For a description of how to set the probe attenuation, refer to page 5-4.
