Instructions

1. Set up the oscilloscope using the following table:
Push menu button Select menu option Select setting
Default setup - -
Channel 1 Probe 1X
Trig Menu Mode Normal
Acquire Sample -
Measure Source Channel under test
Measurements Peak-Peak
2. Connect the oscilloscope channel under test to the leveled sine wave generator as shown in the following figure:
3. Set the oscilloscope Vertical Scale (volts/division) to 500 mV/div.
4. Set the oscilloscope Horizontal Scale (seconds/division) to 20 ns/div.
5. Set the leveled sine wave generator frequency to 10 MHz.
6. Set the leveled sine wave generator output level to approximately 500 mV
p-p
so that the measured amplitude is
approximately 500 mV. (The measured amplitude can fluctuate around 500 mV.)
7. Push the Trigger Level knob to activate the Set To 50%. Rotate the Trigger Level knob to adjust the trigger level as
necessary and then check that triggering is stable.
8. Set the leveled sine wave generator frequency to:
• 200 MHz if you are checking a TBS1202C
• 100 MHz if you are checking a TBS1102C
• 70 MHz if you are checking a TBS1072C
• 50 MHz if you are checking a TBS1052C
9. Set the oscilloscope Horizontal Scale (seconds/division) to 4 ns/div.
10. Set the leveled sine wave generator output level to approximately 750 mV
p-p
so that the measured amplitude is
approximately 750 mV. (The measured amplitude can fluctuate around 750 mV.)
11. Push the Trigger Level knob to activate the Set To 50% feature. Rotate the Trigger Level knob to adjust the trigger
level as necessary and then check that triggering is stable.
12. For the TBS1202C model, set the frequency to 150 MHz, and increase the amplitude to 1 Vp-p. Verify stable
triggering.
13. Set the oscilloscope Horizontal Scale (seconds/division) to 2 ns/div.
14. Change the oscilloscope setup using the following table:
