NOTE
The voltsĆperĆdivision scale factor always refers to major
divisions. A minor division is oneĆfifth of a major division.
Using a Ground Reference Point
To find the voltage of a waveform with respect to ground, you must first
set a ground reference level. Then you can take the measurement.
To set the ground reference level, follow these steps.
ĂĂStep 1:ă
Press the
MODE
button and select the AUTOBL trigger
mode.
ĂĂStep 2:ă
Select ground coupling for the channel you intend to use.
Press the button labeled
CH1
(or
CH2
) located in the middle of
the front panel, to the right of the display.
If that channel was selected, a menu appears on the display. If the
channel was not selected, it now is. Press the button again to
invoke the menu.
ĂĂStep 3:ă
Press the menu button next to the item labeled
GND
. The
menu disappears and a baseline trace appears on the screen.
ĂĂStep 4:ă
Position the baseline trace to a reference horizontal line
on the screen. If the signal is positive with respect to ground, the
bottom line on the screen is a good reference to choose.
ĂĂStep 5:ă
Change the channel coupling to DC.
NOTE
To avoid losing your ground reference, do not change the
vertical position of the signal after you change to DC
coupling.
You can now make your measurement.
ĂĂStep 6:ă
Count the number of vertical divisions from the ground
reference to the measurement point of the signal.
ĂĂStep 7:ă
Multiply the number of divisions by the volts per division.
