How To Use The Probe Safely; How To Implement Self-Calibration - Owon XDS3204AE Manual

Caution:
When the attenuation switch is set to 1X, the probe will limit the bandwidth
of the oscilloscope in 5MHz. To use the full bandwidth of the oscilloscope,
the switch must be set to 10X.

How to Use the Probe Safely

The safety guard ring around the probe body protects your finger against any electric
shock, shown as Figure 3-9.
Warning:
To avoid electric shock, always keep your finger behind the safety guard
ring of the probe during the operation.
To protect you from suffering from the electric shock, do not touch any
metal part of the probe tip when it is connected to the power supply.
Before making any measurements, always connect the probe to the
instrument and connect the ground terminal to the earth.

How to Implement Self-calibration

The self-calibration application can make the oscilloscope reach the optimum
condition rapidly to obtain the most accurate measurement value. You can carry out
this application program at any time. This program must be executed whenever the
change of ambient temperature is 5℃ or over.
Before performing a self-calibration, disconnect all probes or wires from the input
connector. Push the Utility button, select Function in the bottom menu, select Adjust.
