Calibrating and Adjusting User Calibration Perform user-calibration: • Every five years or after 10000 hours of operation. • If the ambient temperature is >10° C from the calibration temperature. • If you want to maximize the measurement accuracy. The amount of use, environmental conditions, and experience with other instruments help determine if you need shorter User Cal intervals.
Keysight InfiniiVision 1000 X-Series Oscilloscope Service Guide 4 Troubleshooting Solving General Problems with the Oscilloscope / 44 Verifying Basic Operation / 46 Read All Cautions and Warnings Before you begin any troubleshooting, read all Warning and Cautions in the “Troubleshooting” section.
Check that the circuit under test is powered on. Press the [Auto Scale] key. Obtain service from Keysight Technologies, if necessary. If the trace display is unusual or unexpected Check that the Horizontal time/division setting is correct for the expected frequency range of the input signals.
Troubleshooting Ensure that the probe’s ground lead is securely connected to a ground point in the circuit under test. For high-speed measurements, each probe’s individual ground lead should also be connected to a ground point closest to the signal point in the circuit under test. Check that the trigger setup is correct.
Troubleshooting Verifying Basic Operation To power-on the oscilloscope 1 Connect the power cord to the rear of the oscilloscope, then to a suitable ac voltage source. The oscilloscope power supply automatically adjusts for input line voltages in the range of 100 to 240 VAC. Ensure that you have the correct line cord. The power cord provided is matched to the country of origin.
Troubleshooting Successfully passing Hardware Self Test does not guarantee 100% of the oscilloscope's functionality. Hardware Self Test is designed to provide an 80% confidence level that the oscilloscope is operating properly. To perform front panel self test Pressing [Utility] > Service > Front Panel Sel f Test lets you test the front panel keys and knobs as well as the oscilloscope display.
Troubleshooting To perform an Auto Scale on the Probe Comp signal 1 Press the [Defaul t Setup] key. The oscilloscope is now configured to its default settings. 2 Connect an oscilloscope probe from channel 1 to the Probe Comp signal terminal on the front panel.
Troubleshooting To compensate passive probes You should compensate your passive probes to match their characteristics to the oscilloscope’s channels. A poorly compensated probe can introduce measurement errors. 1 Perform the procedure “To perform an Auto Scale on the Probe Comp signal"...
