PROCEDURE STEPS
1. Check External Z-Axis Operation
a. Connect the leveled sine-wave generator output via
a 50 0 cable and a T-connector to the CH 1 OR X input
connector. Then connect a 50 Q cable and a 50 Q termina
tion from the T-connector to the EXT Z-AXIS INPUT con
nector on the rear panel.
b. Set the generator to produce a 5 V, 50 kHz signal.
c. CHECK—For noticeable intensity modulation. The
positive part of the sine wave should be of lower intensity
than the negative part.
d. Disconnect the test equipment from the instrument.
2. Check Probe Adjust Operation
a. Set:
CH 1 VOLTS/DIV 10 mV
A SEC/DIV 0.5 ms
b. Connect the 10X Probe to the CH 1 OR X input
connector and insert the probe tip into the PROBE
ADJUST jack on the instrument front panel. If necessary,
adjust the probe compensation for a flat-topped square-
wave display.
c. CHECK—Display amplitude is 4.75 to 5.25 divisions.
d. Disconnect the probe from the instrument.
