Step 5. Use Auto-Scale
The oscilloscope has an auto- scale feature that automatically sets the
oscilloscope controls for the input waveforms present.
Auto-scale requires waveforms with a frequency greater than or equal to
50 Hz and a duty cycle greater than 1%.
1 Press the front panel [Auto-Scale] key.
2 When the AUTO menu appears, press [Menu On/Off] to turn off the
menu.
The oscilloscope turns on all channels that have waveforms applied and
sets the vertical and horizontal scales appropriately. It also selects a
time base range based on the trigger source. The trigger source selected
is the highest- numbered channel that has a waveform applied.
(The Undo softkey in the AUTO menu lets you cancel the auto-scale and
go back to the previous setup.)
