Performance Tests

TDS 500C, TDS 600B & TDS 700C Performance Verification and Specifications

1–45

Check long–term sample

rates and delay time

accuracies against limits.

Align the trigger T to the

center graticule line.

Set

horizontal

mode.

Set horizontal scale

and delayed time.

3. Disconnect the hookup: Disconnect the cable from the generator output at

the input connector of CH 1.

Trigger System Checks

These procedures check those characteristics that relate to the Main and Delayed

trigger systems and are listed as checked in Specifications.

Equipment

required

One medium-frequency sine wave generator

(Item 19 or, optionally, item 25)

One 10X attenuator (Item 1)

One 50 , precision coaxial cable (Item 5)

Prerequisites See page 1–15

Check Accuracy (Time) for

Pulse-Glitch or

Pulse-Width Triggering
