Notice that, as you adjust the vertical position, a message showing the
position of the ground reference relative to the center of the screen is
temporarily displayed in the lower left- hand corner of the screen.
To specify channel coupling
1 If the channel’s menu is not currently displayed, press the channel key
([1], [2], [3], or [4]).
2 In the Channel menu, press Coupling.
3 Continue pressing the Coupling softkey or turn the entry knob to
select between:
DC Passes both DC and AC components of the input
waveform to the oscilloscope. See Figure 17.
You can quickly measure the DC component of the
waveform by simply noting its distance from the ground
symbol.
AC Blocks the DC component of the input waveform and
passes the AC component. See Figure 18.
This lets you use greater sensitivity (amplitude/div
settings) to display the AC component of the waveform.
GND The waveform is disconnected from the oscilloscope
input.
