VERIFY-
The
horizontal distance between the lead-
ing
edges of the B-sweep time markers
is
within the con-
servative guideline listed
in
Table 4-10. If this guideline
is
met, accuracy between
each
marker
is
ensured,
and
the
following
CHECK
step
need
not
be
performed.
NOTE
To
easily maintain the A SWP
and
B
SWP
difference
while testing Delta
Time,
use the following method:
1 . Starting with the
1-µs
test
in
Table 4-10
(X
10
MAG
Off),
turn TRACKING off.
2.
Press
and
hold the TRACKING button, then
push the SEC/DIV knob
in.
This will lock the
sweeps together at that difference.
3.
Pull
the SEC/DIV knob out.
The
fastest sweep speed at which the X100 difference
is
maintained is with
an
A SEC/DIV of 1
µs
and
a B
SEC/DIV of 10
ns,
after which only the A-sweep speed will
change with the SEC/DIV knob.
Push
TRACKING to
unlock this setup.

CHECK-
The
horizontal distance between the lead-
ing
edges
of the B-sweep time markers is within the
specified limits given
in
Table 4-10.
The
limit given is for
separation between the 2nd
and
10th marker; however,
separation between the 2nd marker
and
each succeeding
marker should also
be
checked, calculating the limits from
the specification
as
listed at the top of the table.
t. Repeat part r (and s if necessary) for each combina-
tion of A SEC/DIV, B SEC/DIV,
and
X10
MAG settings
listed
in
Table 4-10.
The
~t
readout should
be
set
to
indi-
cate eight times the A SEC/DIV setting. At the slowest
sweep speeds, the B SEC/DIV knob
can
be
pushed
in
(in
B Sweep only) to increase the display repetition rate.
