3. The self-calibration takes about 5 minutes. “Calibration finished, please restart the oscilloscope!”
will be displayed when the self-calibration finishes and at this point, please restart the
oscilloscope.
4. Press Acquire Acquisition and use to select “Average”. Then, press Averages and use
to set the number of averages to 16.
5. Press down the VERTICAL
POSITION
knob of each channel respectively to set the vertical
positions of the two channels to zero. View the distance between the waveform of each channel
and the screen center at 1 mV/div scale. When this distance is greater than 0.2 div, please perform
self-calibration again until the calibration succeeds (note: make sure that the instrument passes
the self-calibration before performing the performance verification test; otherwise, the test results
might not be accurate).
Test Result Record
Record and keep the test result of each test. In the Appendix of this manual, a test result record form
which lists all the test items and their corresponding performance limits as well as spaces for users to
record the test results, is provided.
Tip:
It is recommended that users photocopy the test record form
before each test and record the test
results in the copy so that the form can be used repeatedly.
