Calibrate the Time Base of an Oscilloscope
The horizontal deflection (time base) of an oscilloscope is calibrated with a method
equivalent to the vertical gain calibration. A time marker signal is made from the
Calibrator and the signal’s peaks are aligned to the graticule line divisions on the
oscilloscope.
The Time Marker Function
The Time MARKER function, which is available through the MARKER menu, lets you
calibrate the timing response of your oscilloscope. To access the MARKER menu, push
the softkey below MODE until “marker” shows.
