In about 20 seconds , a trace will appear on the CRT screen. Adjust the trace to an appro priate brigtness and to the sharpest image with the INTEN control and FOVUS, ASTIG controls. Align the trace with the horizontal center line of graticule by adhusting the CH1 POSITION control and TRACE ROTATION control (3)Connect the probe (inthe10:1 division ratio ,supplied)to the CH1 INPUT terminal,and apply the 0.5V CAL signal to the probe tip. (4)Adjust the FOCUS control until the sharpest trace image bccomes available,Awaveform as shown in Fig 3-1. (5)Single-channel operation with CH2 also can be made in a similar manner. 3.3.3 Brightness control Adjust the INTEN control for comfortable view of traces. 3.3.4 Vertical Axis Operation (1)Dual-channel Operation When in the ALT mode, one channel is displayed for an entire sweep then the next channel is displayed for an entire sweep. When in the CHOP mode,the channel signals are chopped in sequence at a rate of about 2μs(500KHz).Dual-channels traces are simultancously displayed in a time-slicing method .This mode is used primarily for display of low frequency signals at low sweep speeds. (2)ADD Operation Set the VERT MODE switch in the ADD position the signals of CH1 and CH2 can be added as an algebraic sum on the screen. When the CH2 INV knob is keep down the signals of CH1 and CH2 become the difference between them on the screen. (3)X-Y OPERATION When the CH1-X knob is keep down (CH1-X,CH2-Y)the oscilloscope operates as an X-Y xcope with the CH1 signal for the X-axis and the CH2 signal for the Y-axis.The bandwidth of the X-axis becomes DC to 1MHz (-3dB) (4)INPUT COUPLING DC:de coupling ,all signal are directly connected to attenuator. GNG:input signal si switched off and attenuator is grounded. AC:blocks de signal component allowing only AC signal to pass into attenuator. 3.3.5 Triggring (1)Function of SOURCE switch To display a stationary pattern on the CRT scree, the displayed signal itself or a trigger signal which has a time relationship with the displayed signal is required to be applied to the trigger circuit. The SOURCE switch selects such a trigger source LINE:The AC jpower line frequencysignal si used as the trigger signal .This method is effective when the measured signal has arelationshi with the AC line frequency,especially for measurements of low level AC noise of audio circuits,thyristor circuits,etc EXT:The sweep is triggered with an external signal signal applied to the extemal trigger input terminal. EXT:The sweep is triggered with an external signal signal applied to the external trigger input terminal. An external sigmal which has a periodic relationship with respect to the meas ured signal is used.Since the measured dignal (vertical input signal) is not used as the trigger signal,the waveform display can be done independent of the measured signal. INR:Internal triggering source,includes CH1,CH2,and VERT MODE. (2)Fuction of INT TRIG SOURCE switch CH1:The signal applied to the input terminal of CH1 is picked off from respective preamplifier in ouder to be used as CH1 Trigger signal. CH2:The signal applied to the input rerminal of CH2 is picked off from respective preamplifier in ouder to be used as CH1 Trigger signal. This CH1 or CH2 trigger method is used most commonly.The signal applied to the vertical input terminal (the measured signal)si branched off from a point in the amplifier circuit and is fed to the trigger circuit through the INT TRIG SLURCE switch .Since the trigger signal is the measured signal itself,a very stable waveform can be readily displayed on the CRT screen. During the CHOP or ADD operation, either the CH1 or CH2 must be selected as the triggering source signal. VERT MODE:During the CH1 or CH2 operation, the signal of the CH1 or CH2 is automatically use as the triggering source signal. During the ALT operation,ALT trigger to synchronize two asynchronous signals. 3.3.6 Horizontal Axis Operation (1)Time Base The maximum sweep speed is 0.2μs/div .Twenty positions ranging in 1-2-5sequence . The sweep time can be mad slower by a factor of 2.5 or more of the panel-indicated balue. The panel-indicated value are calibrated with vernier control knob set in CAL position. When a certain position of the displayed waveform is meeded to be expanded timewise ,a faster sweep speed may be used. Howerer,if the required fortiom is far away from the starting point of the sweep, the required portion may run off the CRT screen. In such a case,keep down(set in the ×10 MAG state)the X10 knob. When this is done, the displayed waveform is expanded by 10 times to right or left with the center of screen at the center of expansion. (2)Tiggering Mode NORE:When no triggering signal applied,sweep is in a ready state and the trace is blanked out.Used primarily for obseruation of signals of 20Hz or lower AUTO:When no triggering signal si applied or when triggering signal frequency is more the 20Hz ,sweep runs in the free run mode. TV:The trigger circuit is connected to the TV sync separator circuit and the sweeps are synchronized with the TV signal at a rate selected by the SEC/DEV switch/ P-P AUTO:Variable range of triggering level is set automatically depend on trigger signal level. (3)Function of SLOP switch This switch selects the slppe(polarity )of the triggering signal. Pull up the switch to be se in the "+"state, triggering of signal increase(i.e.nega-tive direction).. Push down the switch to be set in the "-"setate triggering occurs as the triggering signal crosses the triggering level in the directiionof signal decrease(i.e.negative direction) (4)Function of TRIG LEVEL Used to select a level within signal peak range from which the sweep can be triggered at a proper input signal starting edge. The ttigger level changes tin the positive direction(upwark)as the control knob is tured clocwise and it changes in the negative direction(downward)as the knob is turned counter clockwise. When the sweep is triggered,the TRIG'D turn on. 3.3.7 Adjustment of Probe When the probe is used in×1 position it does not require frequency compensation adjustment but in×10 position the probe must be properly frequency compensation adjustment before used.Procedure of adjustment is indicated and shown below. Connect the probe BNC to the INPUT terminal of CH1 or CH2,and set VOLTS/DIV switch at 10mV. Connect the probe tip to the calibration voltage output terminal and adjust the COMPENSATOR control with an insulated screw driver so that ideal waveform as illustrated below is obtained.
