SIGLENT Power-on Inspection When the scope is energized, press the power key at the top of it to turn it on. During the start-up progress, the instrument performs a series of self-test items and you can hear the sound of relay switching.
SIGLENT Connect the Probe SIGLENT provides passive probes for the SDS1000CML/CNL/DL series oscilloscope. Please refer to corresponding Probe User Manual for detailed technical information. The following are the probes specified for this oscilloscope. Type Description PB470 70 MHz,passive probe PP510...
SIGLENT Function Inspection 1. Press “DEFAULT SETUP” to restore the oscilloscope to its default settings. 2. Connect the ground alligator clip of the probe to the Ground Terminal on the front panel. 3. Use the probe to connect the CH1 Input Terminal and the Compensation Signal Output Terminal on the front panel.
SIGLENT Probe Compensation You should properly compensate the probe at first use of it. Non-compensated or inadequate compensated probe may cause inaccurate measurement. The following steps are about probe compensation: 1. Perform step 1, 2 , 3 and 4 of “Function Inspection”.

SIGLENT The Rear Panel 1. Handle Pull up the handle vertically for easy carrying. Press it down if you do not need the handle. 2. AC Power Input Terminal The power available of the oscilloscope is 100~240V, 45~440Hz. Please use the power cord provided as accessories to connect the instrument to AC power.
SIGLENT Function Introduction of Front Panel Vertical Control : Input channels. These two channels are marked with different colors to distinguish different input channels and their waveforms. Pressing the channel button will turn on the corresponding channel as well as its menu, and pressing it twice continuously will turn off the channel.

SIGLENT Modify vertical scale of the current channel. Turn clockwise decrease voltage scale while turn counterclockwise to increase it. The amplitude of the waveform will enlarge or reduce and the scale message at the lower-left corner of the screen will also change as the scale changes. Press down the knob to quickly switch the vertical scale adjustment modes between “Coarse”...
SIGLENT Horizontal Control HORIZ MENU : Press the button to open horizontal control menu under which you can turn on/off the delay sweep function and switch the save modes between “long save” and “normal save”. : Modify the trigger position. The trigger point will move left or right relative to the center of the screen when you adjust the knob.
SIGLENT Trigger Control TRIG MENU : Press the button to open trigger menu under which five trigger modes are supported. SET TO : Press the button to set trigger level to the middle of the maximal voltage and the minimal voltage to quickly stabilize the current waveform.
SIGLENT RUN/STOP : Press the button to set the state of the instrument to STOP “RUN” or “STOP”. When in “RUN”, the indicator light displays yellow; When in “STOP”, it displays red. SINGLE SINGLE : Press the button to turn the trigger mode to “Single”.
SIGLENT Universal Knob Adjust waveform brightness While the light above the knob is dark, adjusting the knob will change the waveform brightness, which ranges from 30%~100%. Turning clockwise means increase while counterclockwise means decrease. You can also select “intensity” in “DISPLAY” menu and then adjust the knob to change the waveform brightness.
SIGLENT Function Menus CURSORS : Press the button to enter the cursor measurement function menu. The instrument provides three measure modes: Manual, Track and Auto. : Press the button to enter the acquire function menu, ACQUIRE under which you could set the acquisition mode, sampling mode and dot inserting mode.
SIGLENT addition, some advanced functions are also supported such as Self Calibration, Firmware Update, Pass/Fail test. DEFAULT SETUP DEFAULT : Press the button to restore the oscilloscope to its SETUP default settings. The default voltage scale and time base are respectively 1v/div and 500us.
SIGLENT User Interface 1. Product logo SIGLENT is the registered trademark of our company. 2. Working state Available working states include Ready, Auto, Trig’d, Scan and Stop. 3. Waveform memory Display the position of the current waveform in the memory of the oscilloscope.

SIGLENT 13. Coupling Mode The oscilloscope supports three coupling mode: DC, AC and GND, each of them has unique mark displaying on the screen. 14. Current Channel Display the current working channel. All channels can display at the same time.
SIGLENT Using Security Lock If needed, you could use the security lock (please buy it yourself) to lock the instrument in a fixed location. The method: align the clock with the clock hole and plug it into the lock hole vertically, turn the key clockwise to lock the instrument and then pull the key out.
SIGLENT. (3) Restart the instrument after completing inspections above. (4) If it still does not work normally, please contact SIGLENT. 2. After the signal is sampled, there is no corresponding waveform displaying: (1) Check if the probe is correctly connected to the signal connecting cord.
SIGLENT 4. There is waveform displaying but not stable: (1) Check the trigger source: check whether the “Source” in menu of “TRIG” is the actual operating channel. (2) Check if the waveform is false: it is easy for us to regard the false waveform as the real when a high frequency signal is connected to the instrument.
U disk are no larger than 4 G. (4) Restart the instrument and then insert the U disk to check. (5) If it is still in abnormal use, please contact with SIGLENT. Contact SIGLENT SIGLENT TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD...
