Oscilloscope Operations Safety Information WARNING: C. Applying a voltage to the ground input is likely to cause permanent damage to the oscilloscope, the attached computer, and other equipment. To prevent measurement errors caused by poor grounding, always use the high-quality USB cable supplied with the oscilloscope. External connections DANGER: D. To prevent injury or death, use only the power cord and adaptor supplied with the product.
Oscilloscope Operations Glossary 15.2 Glossary AC/DC Control Each channel can be set to either AC coupling or DC coupling. With DC coupling, the voltage displayed onscreen is equal to the true voltage of the signal with respect to ground. With AC coupling, any DC component of the signal is filtered out, leaving only the variations in the signal for the AC component.
Oscilloscope Operations Glossary Time Base The time base controls the time interval across the scope display. Voltage Range The voltage range is the range between the maximum and minimum voltages that can be accurately captured by the oscilloscope. Sinusoidal Waveform This term describes the waveform characteristics typically found in circuits with large inductance and capacitance, and often referred to as an AC signal.
