5. Tap or click the
button located on the bottom of the screen, a square wave (approximately 1kHzm 2V
peak-to-peak) will be displayed within several seconds.
Note: The above steps also can be applied to check whether the signal input/output of other Channels are
normal or not.
Check the shape of the displayed waveform to determine whether the probe is correctly compensated.
Correctly Compensated
Over Compensated
*Note: If necessary, use a non-metallic tool to
adjust the trimmer capacitor of the probe for
the fattest square wave being displayed on
the Scopebox.
Under Compensated
To avoid electric shock while using the probe, make sure the insulated cable is perfect, and do not
touch the metallic portions of the probe head while it is connected with a high-voltage source.
2). Connection
For different applications, the connection methods may vary.
1. Power the Scopebox on: Power is provided to the Scopebox in either of the following ways:
• Power adapter: Insert one end of the power adapter into the Power interface of the Scopebox, and the
other end to the AC outlet.
• Battery clamps cable: Plug one end of the power adapter into the Power interface of the Scopebox,
and then clamp the other two terminals to the vehicle's battery (Red to +, and Black to -) respectively.
2. Connect the B-shaped terminal of the data cable to the Scopebox Data I/O port, and the other end to the
Data I/O port of the USB hub.
A. While testing sensors or actuators,
3. Connect the BNC connector of the BNC to 4mm test lead to the CH1/CH2/CH3/CH4, and plug the black
(GND) and red (SIGNAL) 4mm connectors into the Black (GND) and other color (SIGNAL) banana
sockets of the 6-way breakout leads respectively.
