To power on the oscilloscope
• Depress the power switch at the lower left-hand corner of the oscilloscope front panel.
After a short initialization period, the oscilloscope display appears. The oscilloscope is ready to
use.
Hook up all cables and accessories before applying power. You can connect and disconnect
probes while the oscilloscope is powered-on.
You Can Configure the Backlight Saver
The oscilloscope display has a backlight saver that turns off the backlight when there has been no
interface activity for a pre-determined period. The default time is 8 hours and is configurable through the
Display Setup dialog in the graphical interface. You can turn the display on by moving the mouse, typing
on the optional keyboard, pressing a front-panel key, or turning a front-panel knob.
