To prepare the GW Instek MPO-2000B for use, follow these steps:

1. Power On – Follow the procedures for turning on the device.
2. Firmware Update – Update to the latest firmware.
3. Set the Date and Time – Configure the date and time settings.
4. Reset System – Recall factory settings by pressing the Default key.
5. Connect the Probe – Attach the probe to the Channel 1 input and the probe compensation output. Ensure the probe attenuation is set to x10 if adjustable.
6. Capture Signal (Autoset) – Press the Autoset key to display a square waveform on the screen.
7. Select Vector Waveform – Press the Display key and set the display mode to Vector.

Following these steps ensures the device is set up correctly and ready for use.

  • Page 83: Segmented Memory Acquisition

    ADVANCED CONFIGURATION Segmented Memory Acquisition The advanced segmented memory utility allows the scope memory to be divided into different segments. Each time the scope is triggered, it only acquires data for one segment of memory at a time. This allows you to optimize the scope memory to only perform signal acquisition during important signal events.

  • Page 84: Segments Display

    MPO-2000 series User Manual Segmented memory acquisition example: As shown above, the memory is divided into segments to increase the number of events that can be effectively captured with the same acquisition memory. Also notice that the scope doesn’t need to rearm the trigger between each segment, this makes the segmented memory function especially useful for high speed signals.
