4.7.2.3 Performing a self-alignment
The self-alignment aligns the data from several input channels vertically and horizon-
tally to synchronize the timebases, amplitudes and positions. The self-alignment proc-
ess includes a basic hardware check.
Recommendation on performing the self-alignment:
●
When putting the instrument into operation for the first time
●
After a firmware update
●
Once a week
●
When major temperature changes occur (> 5°)
1. W
arm up the instrument before you start the self-alignment. The minimum warm-up
time is indicated in the data sheet.
2. Remove the probes from the input connectors.
3. In the "Menu" > "Settings" menu, select "Maintenance".
4. In the "Alignment" tab, tap "Start Alignment".
The alignment is performed, the process might take several minutes. A message
box informs you about the running process, wait until this message box closes.
The overall pass/fail result is shown in the "Overall alignment state" field. The
results of the individual alignment steps for each input channel are indicated in the
"Results" tab. This information is required if problems arise.
