Digital Storage Displays
X-Y Display (Storage Mode)
For X-Y displays in Store mode, you can use the following proce-
dure:
Step
1.
Switch the 2212 on and obtain a baseline display in
Non-Store mode.
Step 2. Rotate the INTENSITY control fully counterclockwise.
Step 3. Set the STORAGE ON/Off switch to ON.
Step
4.
Using two coaxial cables or probes of equal delay, apply
the vertical signal (Y-axis) to the CH 2 ORY input
connector and the horizontal signal (X-axis) to the
CH1 OR X input connector.
Step 5. Toggle the vertical MODE switch to
X-Y.
Step 6. With the SEC/DIV switch you set the sample rate for your
signal. If the SEC/DIV is in one of the two EXT CLOCK
positions, the sample rate is determined by the CLOCK
frequency.
Step
7.
Increase the INTENSITY until the display is visible.
If the display can not be made visible with the
INTENSITY control at midrange, press and hold in the
BEAM FIND button while adjusting the CH 1 and CH 2
VOL TS/DIV switches until the display is reduced in size,
both vertically and horizontally. With the BEAM FIND
button still pressed in, center the compressed display
with the POSITION controls (CH 2 POSITION control for
vertical movement. Horizontal POSITION control for
horizontal movement). Release the BEAM FIND button
and adjust the FOCUS control for a well-defined display.
NOTE
In X-Y Store Mode, llT/ 1/llT Cursors can be selected as well.
