Quick start Probe Compensation All oscilloscope probes should be properly compensated before their first use with the oscilloscope. Non-compensated or inadequate compensated probe may cause inaccurate measurement. The following steps illustrate the proper probe compensation procedure. 1. Perform step 1, 2 , 3 and 4 of “Functional Inspection”. 2.

Front Panel Overview Horizontal Control Trigger Control Quickly enter into the horizontal Roll mode. Press the button to open trigger menu. This oscilloscope provides various trigger types: Edge, Slope, Pulse, Video, Window, Interval, Drop The timebase range is from 50 ms/div to 50 s/div. Out, Runt, Pattern and Serial Bus (I2C/SPI/UART/RS232/CAN/LIN).
Page 13
Interval Trigger Runt Trigger Runt trigger conditions can include positive and negative runts. This mode is The oscilloscope is triggered when the input signal passes through the set used to trigger the oscilloscope when pulses pass through one trigger level but trigger level on its rising edge (or falling edge) and then the trigger level again fail to pass through the other level as shown in the figure below.

Pattern Trigger I2C Trigger After setting the Serial 1 or Serial 2 trigger to I2C in the Trigger menu, use Identifies a trigger condition by looking for a specified pattern. This pattern the universal knob to set the trigger to a start or stop condition, restart, is a logical combination (AND/OR/NAND/NOR) of the two channels.

SPI Trigger After setting the serial trigger to SPI type in trigger menu, you can select to trigger on MISO data or MOSI data. The data length are variable to set from 4 to 96. UART/RS232 Trigger After setting the serial trigger to UART/RS232 type in trigger menu, you can select to trigger on start, stop, checksum error or data. The data width are variable to set from 5 to 8bits.

Vertical Control Vertical Scale: Sets the vertical scale of current waveform. Turn clockwise to decrease the scale value and while turn counterclockwise to increase it. During the modification, the ‘amplitude’ of the waveform will enlarge or reduce and the scale message at the right side of the screen will also change.

Decoding of I2C signal with a 7 bit address is shown in the following photo. Press the button to open the digital channel function menu (Optional function). The SDS2000X support 16 digital channels. Press the button to open the Math operation menu in order to select functions including add, subtract, multiply, divide, FFT, integral, differential, and square root.

Run Control Press the button to enable the waveform auto setup function. The oscilloscope will automatically adjust the horizontal time base, vertical scale and trigger mode according to the input signal to provide a triggered stable display. Press the button to set the state of the instrument to “RUN” or “STOP”. In the “RUN” state, the button glows yellow; In “STOP” state, the button glows red.

Universal Knob Function Menus Adjust Waveform Intensity/Grid Brightness/Transparency In non-menu-operation mode, (menu is hidden), turn this knob to adjust Press the button to open the cursor function. It provides manual and waveform intensity (0% ~ 100%). Turn clockwise to increase the brightness tracking cursor modes.
