Example 1: Measurement of Simple Signals

Observe an unknown signal in the circuit, and display and measure rapidly the frequency and peak-to-peak
value 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.
2. Connect the probe of Channel 1 to the measured point of the circuit.
3. Push down the AUTOSET button.
The oscilloscope will implement the AUTOSET to make the wave form 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 displayed signals automatically. Complete the following operations for
the measurement of frequency, cycle, mean and peak-to-peak value:
1. Press the MEASURE button to show the automatic measurement function menu.
2. Press the F1 menu selection button and choose Source, with the Source menu displayed.
3. Press the F2, F3, F4 and F5 menu selection buttons and choose CH1.
4. Press the F1 menu selection button again and choose Type, with the Type menu displayed.
5. Press the F2 menu selection button and choose Freq.
6. Press the F3 menu selection button and choose Period.
7. Press the F4 menu selection button and choose Mean.
8. Press the F5 menu selection button and choose Pk-Pk.
Then, the frequency, cycle, mean and peak-to-peak value will present in the menu and change periodically
(see Fig. 54).
