  • Page 11: Using Autoset To Acquire A Waveform

    3. Using Autoset to Acquire a Waveform Autoset can often provide a stable signal display, automatically. Attach a TPP0100 passive probe to the Channel 1 BNC connector. Clip the probe tip to the Probe Comp output. Clip the ground clip to the Probe Comp ground terminal. Press Default Setup in Resources section of the front panel.

  • Page 12: Triggering The Scope

    4. Triggering the Scope Although the square wave signal of the probe compensation does not require pulse width triggering, we will set it up for demonstration purposes. Keep Channel 1 connected to the Probe Comp output, as in the last demonstration. Press Default Setup in Resources section of the front panel Adjust the Vertical Scale on Channel 1 to 2.00V...

  • Page 13: Using Pan And Zoom To Navigate Through Long Records

    5. Using Pan and Zoom to Navigate through Long Records Especially for acquisitions of 20M points, it is important to be able to navigate through the record. Pan and zoom enable this. Press the Acquire button on the front panel. Notice that the Multipurpose Knob LED is on, which means it can be used to make a selection.
  • Page 14 6. Using Cursors to Measure Time and Amplitude Cursors enable quick visual measurements on the selected waveform. The TBS2000 features on- waveform readouts to make it easy to visualize measurements. Press Default Setup. Press Autoset. Press the Cursors button beside the MPK (Figure 10).
  • Page 15 7. Making Automated Measurements Automated measurements use the processing power of the scope to provide a frequency, time, amplitude, and area measurements. Connect passive probes to Channel 1 and Channel 2. Connect both probe tips to Probe Comp and both ground clips to Probe Comp ground.
  • Page 16 8. Using an FFT to Analyze a Signal’s Frequency Spectrum The FFT function calculates the frequency input of the source waveform. Cursors make it easy to measure frequency and amplitude in the spectrum. Keep the TPP0100 passive probe connected to Channel 1 and the Probe Comp output.
