Input a Waveform
The first signal to input to the oscilloscope is the Demo 2, Probe Comp
signal. This signal is used for compensating probes.
1 Connect an oscilloscope probe from channel 1 to the Demo 2 (Probe
Comp) terminal on the front panel.
2 Connect the probe's ground lead to the ground terminal (next to the
Demo 2 terminal).
Recall the Default Oscilloscope Setup
To recall the default oscilloscope setup:
1 Press [Default Setup].
The default setup restores the oscilloscope's default settings. This places
the oscilloscope in a known operating condition. The major default settings
are:
Do not float the oscilloscope chassis
Defeating the ground connection and "floating" the oscilloscope chassis will probably
result in inaccurate measurements and may also cause equipment damage. The probe
ground lead is connected to the oscilloscope chassis and the ground wire in the power
cord. If you need to measure between two live points, use a differential probe with
sufficient dynamic range.
Do not negate the protective action of the ground connection to the oscilloscope. The
oscilloscope must remain grounded through its power cord. Defeating the ground
creates an electric shock hazard.
