WaveSurfer 3000 Oscilloscopes
DeGauss Probe
The Degauss control is activated for some types of probes (e.g., current probes). Degaussing eliminates
residual magnetization from the probe core caused by external magnetic fields or by excessive input. It is
recommended to always degauss probes prior to taking a measurement.
CAUTION. Remove the probe from the circuit under test before initializing DeGauss.
Auto Setup
Auto Setup quickly configures the essential oscilloscope settings based on the first input signal it finds,
starting with Channel 1. If nothing is connected to Channel 1, it searches Channel 2 and so forth until it finds
a signal. Vertical Scale (V/div), Offset, Timebase (Time/div), and Trigger are set to an Edge trigger on the
first, non-zero-level amplitude, with the entire waveform visible for at least 10 cycles over 10 horizontal
divisions.
To run Auto Setup, press the front panel Auto Setup button.
Restore Default Setup
Restore the oscilloscope to its factory default state by pressing the front panel Default Setup button. You
can also restore default settings by choosing File > Recall Setup > Recall Default.
Default settings for your oscilloscope include the following:
Channel/Vertical C1-C4 on at 50 mV/div Scale, 0 V Offset
Timebase Real Time Sampling at 50 ns/div, 0 Delay, 2.0 kS at 4 GS/s, 100 kS Memory
Trigger C1 with an Auto Positive Edge, DC Coupling, 0 V Level
