Table 2-1 Model List of DSO5000 Series
DSO5000 Series oscilloscopes cover the bandwidths from 60MHz to 200MHz, and provide
the real-time and equivalent sample rates respectively up to 1GSa/s and 25GSa/s. In addition,
they have maximum 1M memory depth for better observation of the waveform details, and 7 inch
color TFT LCD as well as WINDOWS-style interfaces and menus for easy operation.
What’s more, the plenty menu information and the easy-to-operate buttons allow you to gain
information as much as possible in measurement; the multifunctional knobs and the powerful
shortcut keys help you save a lot of time in operation; the Autoset function lets you detect sine
and square waves automatically; the Probe Check Wizard guides you to adjust the probe
compensation and set the Probe option attenuation factor. By using the three methods the
oscilloscope provides (context-sensitive, hyperlinks, and an index), you may master all operations
on the device in quite a short time so as to greatly improve your efficiency in production and
development.
2.2 Help System
This oscilloscope has a Help system with topics covering all of its features. You can use the Help
system to display several kinds of information:
General information about understanding and using the oscilloscope, such as Using the
Menu System.
Information about specific menus and controls, such as the Vertical Position Control.
Advice to problems you may come across while using an oscilloscope, such as Reducing
Noise.
The Help system provides three methods for you to find the information you want: context-
