Figure 2- 15: Initial test hookup
1. Install the test hookup and preset the instrument controls:
a. Hook up the test-signal source: Connect, through a 50 Ω precision
coaxial cable, the output of the generator to CH 1. See Figure 2--15.
b. Initialize the oscilloscope: Press the DEFAULT SE TUP button.
c. Modify the initialized control s ettings:
H Turn on all vertical channels (press the Vertical button of any off
channels: CH 1, CH 2, and, if equipped, CH 3, and CH 4).
H From the toolbar, click the Vert button. Set the termination of each
channel to 50 Ω by selecting each channel tab and clicking its
Termination 50 Ω button.
H SettheVerticalSCALEofCH1,CH2,CH3,andCH4to100 mV.
H Set the Trigger SOURCE to CH 1.
H Set the Horizontal SCALE to 20 ns (25 n s for TDS5054BE).
