Deskewing the Probes and Channels
To ensure accurate measurements, you must deskew the probes before you take measurements from your
unit
under test. The deskew process is where the oscilloscope adjusts the relative delay between the signals
to accurately time correlate the displayed waveforms.
The
application includes an automated deskew utility that you can use to deskew any p air of oscilloscope
channels.
NOTE. It is recommend that you use the deskew fixture specified in the accessories section to perform
deskew. The deskew source can be the built-in probe compensation signal in the oscilloscope or an
external signal source.
NOTE. The oscilloscope has a deskew range of 50 ns.
