Set up trigger path alignment
NOTE. This online help supports many oscilloscope models from Tektronix. This feature is only a vailable
on some model
s.
The exact trigger l ocation is u sed in alignment process to avoid jitter. To minimize logic trigger errors,
trigger adjustment aligns the 16 digital probe trigger p aths (excluding the clock) using a specified analog
path as a reference source to provide the b est trigger alignment possible. You need the Logic Probe
Deskew Fixture to deskew the logic probe against one analog probe on supported instruments. The fixture
provides a
n edge source for the instrument to time-align the 16 logic trigger paths from the logic probe tips.
NOTE. Refer to the Logic Probe Deskew Fixture Instructions, Tektronix part number 071-2613-XX, for
information on equipment needed, and procedures to c onnect and perform the deskew routine.
To use
Calibrate the analog probe connected to the reference channel.
Click the Align Trigger Path button to start the trigger path alignment routine for the logic probe.
Click the Clear Trigger Path Alignment button to clear the instrument memory of previously-aligned
probe data.
