Self-Calibration 
The Self-Calibration adjusts the internal circuitry to get the best accuracy. Use these 
functions to calibrate the vertical and horizontal systems. 
For maximum accuracy at any time, run this calibration if the ambient temperature 
changes by 5ć or more. 
 
Before running this procedure, do these steps: 
1.  Disconnect any probes or cables from all channel inputs, otherwise failure or 
damage to the oscilloscope may occur. 
2.  Push the Utility button and select Self-Cal. 
 
The Self-Calibration screen is shown as in Figure 2-84.

NOTE: 
The oscilloscope must have been working or warm-up at least 30-minutes before 
running self-calibration to get best accuracy.
