It is thus assumed that this is a proprietary Hantek connector port that will allow a Hantek device (i.e. Hantek 1025G Waveform Generator and others) to be connected to another Hantek device (i.e.
This software is normally provided on a CD when purchasing the oscilloscope. When using the free OPEN6022BE software you will also need to install these Hantek drivers for it to work. While in Windows, insert the installation CD into the CD-ROM drive.

In Device Manager -> View –> Show Hidden Devices you will see both driver 1 and 2 installed, only driver 2 shows as connected to PC. Driver 1 silently installs the firmware to the device on boot and Driver 2 is for communication with the PC: 11.
Now check the shape of the displayed waveforms. Adjust each probe to give the best square wave as per the picture below. Correct Over compensated Under Compensated If necessary, use a non-metallic tool (usually supplied with the probe) to adjust the trimmer capacitor on the rear of the probe for the flattest square wave being displayed on the oscilloscope.
Input a signal to a channel on the oscilloscope: The oscilloscope is equipped with dual channels and has a built in signal generator that puts out a 2V P-P square wave at 1 KHz on an output lug on the front panel.. Input a signal in the following steps: Set the attenuation switch on the probe to 10X and connect the probe to the oscilloscope CH1 BNC signal input.

The Hantek 6022BE does not have the Logic Analyzer built in and the PCB has spare positions without the components. The Hantek 6022BL has the Logic Analyzer installed, but only one of the two devices can be used at a time.

Noise level with no input checked on 20mV div range only 5-10mV noise and impulses could be seen. No physical AC coupling, but at least the user can add a capacitor himself to do this. At 50ms (1Mhz) it starts acquiring at full 1M samples (1,047,552 for each channel total 2x1047552) At 20ms (1Mhz) it is at 523264 samples each Channel At 10ms (1Mhz)= 523264...

Once nice thing about a schematic like this is it makes plain the fact that the 6022BE, unlike most scopes that have 3 or 4 decades of Sensitivity settings, has only one decade. I.e., 100mV/div to 1V/div. That's one area they saved money by compromising on (along with the limited sample rates, and no real triggering).

This is a very useful feature and used by many. This feature should also be able to “reset” the DSO if it has failed and the red led is flashing – not sure if it is possible on the 6022BE. (RichardK is still implementing this) Default Settings Click to go back to the factory settings.

If checked = AC coupling in service. Displays only AC voltage component. The AC coupling on the OPEN6022BE is only software controlled. The Hantek 6022be device does not have a physical capacitor switched in/out in series with the input to block the DC voltage.
If small box checked = AC coupling is in service. Displays only AC voltage component. The user selectable AC coupling on the OPEN6022BE is only software controlled. The Hantek 6022be device does not have a physical capacitor switched in/out in series with the input to block the DC voltage.
In normal mode the oscilloscope only sweeps if the input signal reaches the set trigger point. Otherwise on a digital oscilloscope it is frozen on the last acquired waveform. Normal mode can be disorienting since you may not see the signal at first if the level control is not adjusted correctly.
22. Common Terms Explained 1) Bandwidth The bandwidth specification gives you the frequency range in which the oscilloscope accurately measures. As signal frequency increases, the capability of the oscilloscope to accurately respond decreases. By convention, the bandwidth tells you the frequency at which the displayed signal reduces to 70.7% of the applied sine wave signal.
voltage a general purpose oscilloscope can detect is typically about 2 mV per vertical screen division. 8) Sweep Speed For analog oscilloscopes, this specification indicates how fast the trace can sweep across the screen, allowing you to see fine details. The fastest sweep speed of an oscilloscope is usually given in nanoseconds/div.
X100 and can go up to X10000 for extra high voltage testing. However the 6022be Hantek should not be used for measuring extra high voltages, as it is not designed to do that from a point of safety. Theoretically it may work, but is not recommended.

There are various types of probes: Passive probes are used for general purpose work. They are fitted with resistor capacitor components to provide a specific testing function and can allow for distortion of the signal at certain frequencies. They usually have compensation adjustment, consisting of a small variable capacitor for the user to match the probe to the signal.
Differential Probes have a significant difference in that the probe tip has two inputs, a positive (or non-inverting) and a negative (or inverting) input and are like two probes in one. Instead of measuring a test point in relation to a ground point (like single-ended active probes), differential probes measure the difference in voltage of a test point in relation to another test point.
Click on View > Measure > Measure Output To measure the Frequency and Peak to Peak Voltage, you can do these steps as follows: See picture above. Check the Frequency box and, the frequency of the signal will be shown on the bottom of the waveform interface.
can scroll and zoom in to any event of interest in the scope acquisition after the scope captures a single trace. To capture a single event, it needs to gather some pre-test knowledge of the signal in order to set up the trigger level and slope correctly. For example, if the event is derived from 3.3V COMS logic, a trigger level of 1.2 or higher Volts should work on a rising edge.

Under Function select Sine Wave for both CH1 & CH2. Only a sine wave will produce these patterns. Leave Phase Offset at 0.0° on both channels. Close Demo Mode Options. In Controls on the right hand side open Format dropdown and select XY. A straight line slanting towards the right (Lissajous pattern) will show, which indicates both frequencies are the same thus 1:1 on CH1 &...
6 = phase shift (in degrees) between the two signals. Sin6 = A/B or C/D , where From the formula above: 6 = ±arcsine (A/B) or ±arcsine (C/D) 6 must be in the range of (0- rr /2) or (3 rr /2-2 rr ) if the main axis of the ellipse is between I and III quadrant.
This should provide some deeper insight into how the Hantek 6022BE actually functions. Do not forget that this is a budget device and it will be unfair to expect it to provide similar performance to the more expensive devices.

state since it represents the least significant bit of the encoded value. To help identify its significance, this voltage value, which in this case is 4mV, is called the LSB voltage. The LSB voltage tells us the voltage resolution of an ADC. When the LSB voltage and the bit resolution are known the full scale (FS) range can be easily deduced if it's not known.

The chart below the circuit diagram shows the characteristics of each V/Div setting. The highlighted settings don't use zoom-in or zoom-out.
Appendix C: General Maintenance General Care Do not store or leave the oscilloscope where the device will be exposed to direct sunlight or moisture for long periods of time. Caution To avoid damage to the device or probes, do not expose them to sprays, liquids or solvents. To avoid damage to the surface of the device or probes do not use any abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.
