SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This section contains the basic safety symbols that may appear on the accompanying user manual CD or on the instrument. For detailed safety instructions and precautions, please see the Safety Instructions chapter in the user manual CD.

Safety Symbols

These safety symbols may appear in the user manual or on the instrument.

Warning

Warning: Identifies conditions or practices that could result in injury or loss of life.

Caution

Caution: Identifies conditions or practices that could result in damage to the instrument or to other properties.

DANGER High Voltage

Attention Refer to the Manual

Protective Conductor Terminal

Earth (ground) Terminal

Do not dispose electronic equipment as unsorted municipal waste. Please use a separate collection facility or contact the supplier from which this instrument was purchased.

Power Cord for the United Kingdom

When using the instrument in the United Kingdom, make sure the power cord meets the following safety instructions.

NOTE: This lead/appliance must only be wired by competent persons.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED IMPORTANT: The wires in this lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green/ Yellow:

Earth Blue: Neutral Brown: Live (Phase)

As the colours of the wires in main leads may not correspond with the coloured marking identified in your plug/appliance, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured Green & Yellow must be connected to the Earth terminal marked with either the letter E, the earth symbol

or coloured Green/Green & Yellow.

The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured Blue or Black. The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter L or P or coloured Brown or Red. If in doubt, consult the instructions provided with the equipment or contact the supplier. This cable/appliance should be protected by a suitably rated and approved HBC mains fuse: refer to the rating information on the equipment and/or user instructions for details. As a guide, a cable of

0.75mm

should be protected by a 3A or 5A fuse. Larger conductors would normally require 13A types, depending on the connection method used. Any exposed wiring from a cable, plug or connection that is engaged in a live socket is extremely hazardous. If a cable or plug is deemed hazardous, turn off the mains power and remove the cable, any fuses and fuse assemblies. All hazardous

wiring must be immediately destroyed and replaced in accordance to the above standard.

Setting up the Oscilloscope

This section describes how to set up the oscilloscope properly including adjusting the handle, connecting a signal, adjusting the scale, and compensating the probe. Before operating the oscilloscope in a new environment, run these steps to make sure the oscilloscope is functionally stable.

1. Pull both bases of the handle out slightly.

2. Turn to one of the three

preset positions.

3. Connect the power cord.

4. Press the power switch. The

display will become active in approximately 10 seconds.

5. Reset the system by

recalling the factory settings. Press the Save/Recall key, then Default Setup.

6. Connect the probe between the Channel1 input

terminal and probe compensation signal output (2Vp-p, 1kHz square wave).

7. Set the probe attenuation voltage to x10.
