Example 4: To Reduce the Random Noise on a Signal 
 
If the signal is noisy (Figure 3-2), set up the oscilloscope to reduce the noise on the 
waveform and avoid its interference to the signal.

1.  Set the probe and the channel attenuations to 10X. 
 
2.  Connect a signal to the oscilloscope and obtain a stable display. 
 
3.  Improve the trigger by setting the Coupling. 
(1)  Press the MENU in the Trigger control area. 
(2)  Press Set Up→Coupling and select “LF Reject”. Low frequency reject, namely 
adding a high pass filter, filters out the low-frequency signal components (lower 
than 10kHz) while allows high-frequency signal components to pass. Or press 
Set Up→HF Reject and select “ON”. High frequency reject, namely adding a low 
pass filter, filters out the high-frequency signal components (greater than 
100KHz,  such as FM broadcast signal) while allows  low frequency  signal 
components to pass. Through LF Reject or HF Reject, low frequency or high 
frequency noise is rejected to obtain stable trigger.
