Channel Coupling
The undesired signals can be filtered out by setting the coupling mode. For example,
the signal under test is a square waveform with DC offset.
When the coupling mode is "DC": the DC and AC components can pass the
channel.
When the coupling mode is "AC": the DC components of the signal under test
are blocked.
When the coupling mode is "GND": the DC and AC components of the signal
under test are both blocked.
Press CH1 Coupling and use to select the desired coupling mode (the
default is DC). The current coupling mode is displayed in the channel status label at
the bottom of the screen as shown in the figures below. You can also press
Coupling continuously to switch the coupling mode.
DC AC GND
Bandwidth Limit
Setting the bandwidth limit can reduce the display noise. For example, the signal
under test is a pulse with high frequency oscillation.
When bandwidth limit is disabled, the high frequency components of the signal
under test can pass the channel.
Enable bandwidth limit and limit the bandwidth to 20 MHz or 100 MHz, the high
frequency components of the signal under test that exceed 20 MHz or 100 MHz
are attenuated.
Note: For DS2102E, the bandwidth limit is only 20 MHz.
Press CH1 BW Limit and use to enable or disable bandwidth limit (the
default is OFF). When bandwidth limit (20 MHz or 100 MHz) is enabled, the character
"B" will be displayed in the channel status label at the bottom of the screen. You can
also press BW Limit continuously to switch the bandwidth limit status.
