TDS5000B Series Specifications and Performance Verification
H Press the front-panel Vertical button that corresponds to the channel
that you are to confirm.
H Move the leveling output of the sine wave generator to the channel
that you selected.
b. Match the trigger source to the channel selected:
H Press the Trigger SOURCE button until the source that corresponds
to the channel that you are to confirm is on.
c. Set its input impedance:
H From the toolbar, click the VERT button and select the tab for the
channel that you are to confirm. Click the Termination 50 Ω button.
d. Set the vertical scale: S et the vertical SCALE that corresponds to the
channel that you are to confirm to one of the settings listed in Table 2--3
not yet checked. (Start with the 100 mV setting.)
e. Set the triggering coupling:
H Click the Coupling DC button.

If your generator cannot output 6 divisions of amplitude, determine its maximum output at the Test
frequency, and use this for the reference amplitude. The -3 db limit can be calculated as: 0.707 ×
reference am plitude.
