coefficient (uncalibrated i.e. “DLY>0.125ms”). The width of the

window segment decreases when the DELAY time coefficient is set to

a lower value (higher time deflection speed).

For better reading, the vertical position of the DELAY time base trace

position can be shifted (please note TRACE SEP (11)).

DELAY

In the DELAY time base mode, the display of the MAIN traces, the

window sector and the MAIN time coefficient will disappear from the

readout. As the trace separation is no longer required under the

circumstances, the function would be switched off too. Consequently,

only the DELAY time coefficient is displayed by the readout.

X-Y

Switch on or off the X-Y mode by pressing and holding the button. In

the X-Y mode, the deflection coefficient is displayed in the readout.

The Y axis input is selected by setting the vertical mode pushbutton to

the CH1, CH2 and both modes, and the X axis input is selected by

setting the TRIGGER SOURCE pushbutton to the CH1, CH2 and EXT.

(23)H POSITION

The control knob enables a horizontal position shift of the signals. In

combination with ×10 MAG the function makes it possible to shift any

part of the signal on the screen.

(24)×10 MAG—SETUPS LOCK— Pushbutton has double function and

associated MAG LED.

Each time when this pushbutton is pressed, the MAG LED located

above will be switch on or off. If the MAG LED is lighted, the signal

display in all time base modes will be expanded 10 folds and

consequently only a tenth part of the signal curve is visible. The

interesting part of the signal can be made visible with the aid of the H.

POSITION control.

SETUPS LOCK

Pressing and holding the pushbutton, then switch the panel setups lock

function on or off. To avoid unintentional touch of the setting, the

feature is extremely useful for long term and repetitive measurements

that need to be performed under the same test condition of the

oscilloscope setting.

(25)AUTO RANGE-VAR – Pushbutton with double function.

AUTO RANGE

Each time when the pushbutton is pressed briefly the incoming signal

is selected, then the time range would change automatically and approx.

1.6 to 4 waveforms are displayed on the screen. If in the ×10 MAG

mode, the ten times of waveform of 1.6 to 4 cycles can be displayed.

For signal of 100Hz or in the absence of a trigger, the time range is set

to 5ms/div, and for the signals of approx. 8MHz or more, it is set to

50ns/div. The time range change automatically following the different

incoming signal.

The AUTO RANGE does not function when the trigger is not obtained.

The AUTO RANGE functions with the trigger signal selected by the

TRIGGER SOURCE, COUPLING and LEVEL control. The time base

mode should be set to MAIN.

In case of measuring a complex waveform such as a TV signal, it may

take several seconds to perform the AUTO RANGE function.

VAR

Pressing and holding the pushbutton to select the TIME/DIV (21)

control knob function between time base switch and vernier (variable).

The variable function is activated in the MAIN time base only.

After switching on the VAR, the time deflection coefficient is still

calibrated until further adjustments are made. Turn the TIME/DIV (21)

control knob counter clockwise to increase the time deflection
