Select Output Termination
The instrument has a fixed series output impedance of 50 Ω to the front-panel channel connectors. If the actual load
impedance differs from the value specified, the displayed amplitude and offset levels will be incorrect. The load imped-
ance setting is simply a convenience to ensure that the displayed voltage matches the expected load.
1. Press a channel output key to open the channel configuration screen. Note that the current output termination
values (both 50 Ω in this case) appear on the tabs at the top of the screen.
2. Specify the output termination.
3. Press the Output Load softkey.
4. Select the desired output termination.
5. Use the knob or numeric keypad to select the desired load impedance or press Set to 50 Ω or Set to High Z.
Reset Instrument
To reset the instrument to its factory default state, press System and then select Store/Recall and Set to Defaults.
