All specifications apply to all TDS5000 models unless noted otherwise. To meet
specifications, the following conditions must be met:
H The oscilloscope must have been calibrated in an ambient temperature
between 20 °C and 30 °C(68°F and 86 °F).
H The oscilloscope must be operating within the environmental limits listed in
Table A--10 on page A--20.
H The oscilloscope must be powered from a source that meets the specifica-
tions listed in Table A-- 8 on page A--18.
H The oscilloscope must have been operating continuously for at least 20
minutes within the specified operating temperature range.
H You must perform the Signal Path Compensation procedure after the
20-minute warm-up period, and the ambient temperature must not change
more than 5 °C(41°F) without first repeating the procedure. See Appendix
E: Optimizing Measurement Accuracy for instructions to perform this
procedure.
