TDS 500C, TDS 600B & TDS 700C Performance Verification and Specifications
H Envelope mode displays an actively acquiring waveform on-screen
with the noise displayed.
H Average mode displays an actively acquiring waveform on-screen
with the noise reduced.
f. Test all channels: Repeat substeps a through e until all four input
channels are verified.
3. Remove the test hookup: Disconnect the probe from the channel input and
the probe-compensation terminals.
Equipment
required
One probe such as the P6243, P6245 or P6139A
Prerequisites None
1. Install the test hookup and preset the oscilloscope controls:
a. Hook up the signal source: Install the probe on CH 1. Connect the probe
tip to PROBE COMPENSATION SIGNAL on the front panel;
connect the probe ground to PROBE COMPENSATION GND. See
Figure 1–3 on page 1–8.
b. Initialize the oscilloscope:
H Press save/recall SETUP.
H Press the main-menu button Recall Factory Setup; then press the
side-menu button OK Confirm Factory Init.
c. Modify default settings:
H Set the vertical SCALE to 200 mV.
H Set the horizontal SCALE to 200 s.
H Press SET LEVEL TO 50%.
H Press CLEAR MENU to remove the menus from the screen.
2. Verify that the time base operates: Confirm the following statements.
a. One period of the square-wave probe-compensation signal is about five
horizontal divisions on-screen for the 200 s horizontal scale setting (set
in step 1c).
b. Rotating the horizontal SCALE knob clockwise expands the waveform
on-screen (more horizontal divisions per waveform period), counter-
clockwise rotation contracts it, and returning the horizontal scale to
200 s returns the period to about five divisions.
