2.2 Setting Up the Waveform
This chapter contains the fundamental procedures for setting up the acquisition and
adjusting the channel waveforms.
2.2.1 Setting Up the Signal Input with Autoset
Autoset is the solution for the major part of routine test-setup. It is also a good start if you
need to use more complex trigger settings. Autoset finds appropriate horizontal and ver-
tical scales, vertical offset, and trigger conditions to present a stable waveform.
1. Connect the probe to the input connector CH N.
The instrument recognizes the probe and turns the channel on.
2. Press the AUTOSET button on the left of the display.
2.2.2 Adjusting the Signal Input Manually
1. Connect the probe to the input connector CH N.
The instrument recognizes the probe and turns the channel on.
2.
On the "Horizontal" menu, tap "Time Base".
3. Set the "Time scale" and the "Reference point".
4.
Tap the "Resolution" tab.
5. Select to set either the resolution or the record length and enter the required value.
6. Press the channel button corresponding to the input channel. It is illuminated with the
color of the channel waveform.
7.
In the "Channels" tab, select the "Coupling".
8. Adjust the vertical "Scale", and the vertical "Position".
9. Tap "Acquisition" to proceed with the acquisition setup.
2.2.3 Setting the Acquisition

●
Probes are connected.
●
Vertical and horizontal settings are adjusted.
The settings are described in chapter 2.3.1.3, "Acquisition", on page 31.
