2.Basic Operation

Probe Compensation

Perform this adjustment to match your probe to the input

channel. This should be done whenever you attach a passive

probe for the first time to any input channel. A poorly

compensated probe can introduce measurement errors.

1. Connect the oscilloscope probe to channel 1. Connect

the probe tip to the 3Vp-p@1kHz terminal and connect

the probe’s ground lead to the chassis ground terminal,

then press the AUTO key.

2. Use a nonmetallic tool to adjust the trimmer capacitor on

the probe for the flattest pulse possible. The trimmer

capacitor is located on the probe BNC connector.

Correctly compensated

Over compensated

Under compensated

Basic Operation



3. Connect probes to all other oscilloscope channels.

Repeat the procedure for each channel. This matches

each probe to each channel.

Using Autoset

The 2534 & 2540 series digital storage oscilloscopes provide

the Autoset function which sets the vertical, horizontal, and

trigger controls automatically.

Autoset function finds, turns on, and scales any channel with

a repetitive waveform that has a frequency of at least 50 Hz,

a duty cycle greater than 0.5% and an amplitude of at least

10 mV peak-to-peak. Any channels that do not meet these

requirements are turned off.

When you are using more than one channel, the Autoset

function sets the vertical controls for each channel and uses

the lowest-numbered active channel to set the horizontal and

trigger controls.

To configure the oscilloscope quickly and automatically,

press the AUTO key to display the connected signals that are

active.

To configure the oscilloscope to display multiple cycles,

press the Multi-Cycle softkey in the AUTO menu.

To configure the oscilloscope to display a single cycle, press

the Single Cycle softkey in the AUTO menu.

Basic Operation

19

To undo the effects of Autoset, press the Undo Autoset

softkey in the AUTO menu before pressing any other key.

This is useful when you have unintentionally pressed the

AUTO key or do not like the settings Autoset has selected

and want to return to your previous settings.
