Installation Signal Path Compensation Signal Path Compensation (SPC) corrects for DC inaccuracies caused by temperature variations and/or long-term drift. Run the compensation whenever the ambient temperature has changed by more than 10 °C (18 °F) or once a week if you use vertical settings of 5 mV/division or less. Failure to do so may result in the instrument not meeting warranted performance levels at those volts/div settings.
Page 44 Service personnel use the factory calibration functions to calibrate the internal voltage references of the oscilloscope using external sources. Contact your Tektronix ﬁeld ofﬁce or representative for assistance with factory calibration. NOTE. Signal Path Compensation does not include calibration to the probe tip. (See page 13, Compensating a non-TPP0250, non-TPP0500B or non-TPP1000 Passive Voltage Probe.)

Page 77 Acquire the Signal 5. Push the desired channel button. Then adjust the vertical position and scale. 6. Adjust the horizontal position and scale. The horizontal position determines the number of pretrigger and posttrigger samples. The horizontal scale determines the size of the acquisition window relative to the waveform.

Push Select or Enter Character to let the oscilloscope know that you have picked the proper character to use.
Page 80: Using Autoset
Acquire the Signal Using Autoset Autoset adjusts the instrument (acquisition, horizontal, trigger, and vertical controls) such that it displays four or ﬁve waveform cycles for analog channels with the trigger near the midlevel, and ten cycles for digital channels. Autoset works with both the analog and digital channels. 1.
Page 81: Acquisition Concepts
Acquire the Signal 4. Select the desired setting using the side Autoset Enabled menu. Autoset Disabled Quick Tips To position the waveform appropriately, Autoset may change the vertical position. Autoset always sets vertical offset to 0 V. If you use Autoset when no channels are displayed, the instrument turns on channel 1 and scales it. If you use Autoset and the oscilloscope detects a video signal, the oscilloscope automatically sets the trigger type to video and makes other adjustments to display a stable video signal.
Page 82: Using Fastacq
Acquire the Signal Waveform Record The instrument builds the waveform record through use of the following parameters: Sample interval: The time between recorded sample points. Adjust this by turning the Horizontal Scale knob or pushing Acquire and changing the record length in the Acquire menu. Record length: The number of samples required to ﬁll a waveform record.

Page 103: Setting Up Digital Channels
Acquire the Signal Setting Up Digital Channels Use front panel buttons and knobs to set up your instrument to acquire signals using the digital channels. 1. Connect the P6316 16-channel logic probe to the input signal source. 2. Connect the ground lead or leads to the circuit ground.
Page 104 Acquire the Signal 7. Turn Multipurpose a to scroll through the list of digital channels. Turn Multipurpose b to position the selected channel. As you position channels close to each other on the display, the oscilloscope groups the channels, and adds the group to the pop-up list.
Page 105: When And Why To Turn On Magnivu
When and Why to Turn On MagniVu Tektronix MagniVu acquisition technology allows you to have higher timing resolution so that you can more accurately determine edge placement and make more precise timing measurements on digital edges. Using MagniVu, you can see up to 16 times more detail than you can using normal digital channel sampling.
Page 106: Setting Up The Rf Inputs
Acquire the Signal Quick Tips If you think you need more timing resolution, turn on MagniVu to increase the resolution. MagniVu is always acquired. If the oscilloscope is in a stopped state, you can turn on MagniVu and still get the resolution without taking another acquisition.

Page 110 Acquire the Signal Description Window Kaiser The frequency resolution when using the Kaiser window is fair; the spectral leakage and amplitude accuracy are both good. The Kaiser window is best used when frequencies are very close to the same value but have widely differing amplitudes (the side lobe level and shape factor are closest to the traditional Gaussian RBW).
Page 111: Trigger Setup
Trigger Setup Trigger Setup This section contains concepts and procedures for setting up the oscilloscope to trigger on your signal. Triggering Concepts Trigger Event The trigger event establishes the time-reference point in the waveform record. All waveform record data is located in time with respect to that point.
Page 112: Trigger Holdoff
Trigger Setup Trigger Holdoff Adjust holdoff to obtain stable triggering when the instrument is triggering on undesired trigger events. Trigger holdoff can help stabilize triggering, since the oscilloscope does not recognize new triggers during the holdoff time. When the instrument recognizes a trigger event, it disables the trigger system until acquisition is complete.
Page 113: Slope And Level
Trigger Setup 1. Adjust the position (delay) time by rotating the Horizontal Position knob. 2. Turn horizontal SCALE to acquire the detail that you need around the position (delay) expansion point. The part of the record that occurs before the trigger is the pretrigger portion. The part that occurs after the trigger is the posttrigger portion.

Spectrogram Display The spectrogram display is particularly useful for monitoring slowly-changing RF phenomena. The x-axis represents frequency, just like the typical spectrum display. The y-axis represents time. Color indicates amplitude. Spectrogram slices are generated by taking each spectrum and ﬂipping it on its edge so that it is one pixel row tall, and then assigning colors to each pixel based on the amplitude at that frequency with the cold colors of blue and green representing low amplitude, and the hotter colors of yellow and red indicating higher amplitude.

Page 207: Use The Arbitrary Function Generator
You can modify your arbitrary waveform via an on-screen editor and then replicate it out of the generator. For more involved waveform manipulation, you can use Tektronix’ ArbExpress PC-based waveform creation and editing software. It is available for free download from www.tektronix.com/software. Use version 3.1 or later with the MDO3000.

Also, you can use the side menu to load a saved waveform from a ﬁle. When you have chosen the desired waveform, push OK Load from the side menu.
Page 212 Use the Arbitrary Function Generator Quick Tips You can save arbitrary waveforms in .CSV format. A .CSV ﬁle consists of sets of waveform point pairs (voltage, point number). You can load arbitrary waveforms from a variety of active time domain waveform sources: Channel 1 - 4, Ref 1 - 4, MATH, digital channels D0 - D15.
