Summary

Safety and regulatory information

Safety instructions

Provides crucial safety guidelines for using the oscilloscope and its accessories safely.

Getting started

Preparing for use

Basic information for setting up the instrument for the first time or when changing its operating site.

Operating basics

Using the touchscreen

Details how to access functionality via the main menu, shortcuts, and entering data using the touchscreen.

Front panel keys

Describes the function of front panel keys grouped into logical blocks like Action and Analysis controls.

Waveform setup

Connecting probes and displaying a signal

Covers connecting probes to the instrument and displaying signals, including important notices on attenuation factors.

Horizontal setup

Explains how to adjust horizontal settings, also known as timebase settings, to view waveforms in the horizontal direction.

Vertical setup

Describes how to adjust vertical settings and probe settings for waveform display.

Probes

Details the use of various probe types, including passive, active voltage, and current probes.

Acquisition setup

Explains how the instrument captures the signal and converts it to digital samples for processing and storage.

Trigger

Trigger controls

Explains how to use front panel keys and rotary knobs to adjust trigger settings and start/stop acquisition.

General trigger settings

Covers general trigger settings independent of trigger type, including trigger mode and trigger type.

Edge trigger

Details the edge trigger, the most common type, which occurs when the signal passes the trigger level in a specified direction.

Waveform analysis

Zoom

Magnifies parts of the waveform to view more details, applicable to analog, digital channels, and math waveforms.

Mathematics

Describes how to create and configure math waveforms using predefined operations and save them as equation sets.

Search

Covers search functions to find events like edges, pulse widths, peaks, or other events matching specific conditions.

Measurements

Quick measurements

Performs automatic measurements on selected channels, displaying results directly on the waveform or in a result line.

Automatic measurements

Enables performing up to 8 different measurements simultaneously, with detailed descriptions of measurement types.

Cursor measurements

Determines results at current cursor positions, which can be set manually or follow the waveform.

Applications

Mask testing

Uses masks to determine signal amplitude within specified limits, detecting errors or testing compliance of digital signals.

FFT analysis

Provides basic FFT calculation to convert time-based waveforms into spectrums for analyzing signal effects.

Spectrum analysis and spectrogram (option R&S RTA-K18)

Offers additional functionalities to FFT calculation, including spectrogram and peak list analysis.

Spectrum analysis and spectrogram (option R&S RTA-K37)

Provides spectrum analysis and spectrogram features, allowing frequency-dependent event analysis.

Documenting results

Saving and loading instrument settings

Describes saving and loading instrument configurations, including display settings, for repeating tests or analysis.

Saving waveform data

Explains how to save waveform data to USB flash drives, including history data and logic channels with MSO option.

General instrument setup

Instrument settings

Covers general instrument settings accessible from the setup menu, including device information, language, and probe adjustment.

Updating the firmware

Provides instructions for updating the instrument's firmware using a USB flash drive downloaded from the internet.

Network connections and remote operation

Serial bus analysis

Power analysis (option R&S RTA-K31)

Probe adjustment

Explains the importance of deskewing probes for accurate power measurements and adjusting zero offset.

Logic analyzer (option R&S RTA-B1, MSO)

Signal generation (option R&S RTA-B6)

Function generator

Describes the waveform generator's capabilities for outputting simple functions, modulated waveforms, arbitrary waveforms, and sweep waveforms.

Remote control commands

Trigger

Explains triggering mechanisms, including general settings, edge, width, pattern, runt, rise time, timeout, and actions on trigger.

Measurements

Covers quick measurements and automatic measurements, including measurement types and statistics.

Applications

Lists available applications such as mask testing, FFT analysis, spectrum analysis, XY-diagrams, digital voltmeter, trigger counter, and Bode plot.
