Example 1: Measurement a Simple Signal

The purpose of this example is to display an unknown signal in the circuit, and
measure the frequency and peak-to-peak voltage of the signal.
1. Carry out the following operation steps for the rapid display of this
signal:
(1) Set the probe menu attenuation coefficient as 10X and that of the switch in
the probe switch as 10X (see "How to Set the Probe Attenuation
Coefficient" on P13).
(2) Connect the probe of Channel 1 to the measured point of the circuit.
(3) Push the Autoset button.
The oscilloscope will implement the Autoset to make the waveform optimized,
based on which, you can further regulate the vertical and horizontal divisions
till the waveform meets your requirement.
2. Perform Automatic Measurement
The oscilloscope can measure most of the displayed signals automatically. To
measure the period, the frequency of the CH1, following the steps below:
(1) Push the Measure front panel button to show the Measure menu.
(2) Select Add in the bottom menu.
(3) In the left Type menu, turn the M knob to select Period.
(4) In the right menu, select CH1 in the Source menu item.
(5) In the right menu, select Add. The period type is added.
(6) In the left Type menu, turn the M knob to select Frequency.
(7) In the right menu, select CH1 in the Source menu item.
(8) In the right menu, select Add. The frequency type is added.
The measured value will be displayed at the bottom left of the screen
automatically (see Figure 8-1).
