Safety Requirement

1.1 General Safety Summary

Please review the following safety precautions carefully before putting the instrument into operation so as t any product connected to it. To prevent potential hazards, please follow the instructions specified in this manual to use the instrument properly.
Use Proper Power Cord.
Only the exclusive power cord designed for the instrument and authorized for use within the destination country could be used.
Ground the Instrument.
The instrument is grounded through the Protective Earth lead of the power cord. To avoid electric shock, it is essential to connect the earth terminal of the power cord to the Protective Earth terminal before connecting any inputs or outputs.
Connect the Probe Correctly.
o avoid any personal injury or damage to the instrument and
If a probe is used, the probe ground lead must be connected to earth ground. Do not connect the ground lead to high voltage. Improper way of connection could result in dangerous voltages being present on the connectors, controls or other surfaces of the oscilloscope and probes, which will cause potential hazards for operators.
Observe All Terminal Ratings.
To avoid fire or shock hazard, observe all ratings and markers on the instrument and check your manual for more information about ratings before connecting the instrument.
Use Proper Overvoltage Protection.
Ensure that no overvoltage (such as that caused by a bolt of lightning) can reach the product. Otherwise, the operator might be exposed to the danger of an electric shock.
Do Not Operate Without Covers.
Do not operate the instrument with covers or panels removed.
Do Not Insert Objects Into the Air Outlet.
Do not insert objects into the air outlet, as doing so may cause damage to the instrument.
Use the Proper Fuse.
Please use the specified fuses.

Safety Requirement
Avoid circuit or wire exposure.
Do Not Operate With Suspected Failures.
Keep Well Ventilation.
Do Not Operate in Wet Conditions.
Do not touch exposed junctions and components when the instrument is pow
ered on.
If you suspect damage occurs to the instrument, have it inspected by RIGOL authorized personnel before further operations. Any maintenance, adjustment or replacement especially to circuits or accessories must be performed by RIGOL authorized personnel.
Inadequate ventilation may cause an increase of temperature in the instrument, which would cause damage to the instrument. So please keep the instrument well ventilated and inspect the air outlet and the fan regularly.
To avoid short circuit inside the instrument or electric shock, never operate the instrument in a humid environment.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.
To avoid personal injuries or damage to the instrument, never operate the instrument in an explosive atmosphere.
Keep Instrument Surfaces Clean and Dry.
To avoid dust or moisture from affecting the performance of the instrument, keep the surfaces of the instrument clean and dry.
Prevent Electrostatic Impact.
Operate the instrument in an electrostatic discharge protective environment to avoid damage induced by static discharges. Always ground both the internal and external conductors of cables to release static before making connections.
Use the Battery Properly.
Do not expose the battery (if available) to high temperature or fire. Keep it out of the reach of children. Improper change of a battery (lithium battery) may cause an explosion. Use the RIGOL specified battery only.
Handle with Caution.
Please handle with care during transportation to avoid damage to keys, knobs, interfaces, and other parts on the panels.

connected to MAINS. Examples are measurements on circuits not derived from MAINS, and specially protected (internal) MAINS derived circuits. In the latter case, transient stresses are variable. Thus, you must know the transient withstand capability of the equipment.
Measurement category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly
connected to low voltage installation. Examples are measurements on household appliances, portable tools and similar equipment.
Measurement category III is for measurements performed in the building
installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers, wiring (including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches and socket-outlets) in the fixed installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment. For example, stationary motors with permanent connection to a fixed installation.
Measurement category IV is for measurements performed at the source of a
low-voltage installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple control units.

1. AUX OUT
- Trigger output:
When the AUX output is set to "TrigOut", the oscilloscope generates a trigger and outputs a signal that can reflect the current capture rate of the oscilloscope via this interface. Connect the signal to a waveform display device and measure the frequency of the signal. The measurement result is the same as the current capture rate.

- Pass/Fail:
When the AUX output is set to "PassFail", in the pass/fail test, the instrument will output a pulse via the [AUX OUT] connector when a passed or failed waveform is detected during the pass/fail test.

This oscilloscope pr Normal (default), Average, Peak, High Res, and UltraAcquire. The selected acquisition mode is indicated in the acquisition label ("A" icon) at the top of the screen.
Normal
In Normal acquisition mode, the oscilloscope samples the signal at a fixed time
erval to rebuild the waveform. This mode produces the best display for most
int waveforms.
Average
In this mode, the oscilloscope averages the waveforms from multiple acquisitions to reduce the random noise of the input signal and increase the vertical resolution. A greater number of averages lowers the noise and increases the vertical resolution. On the other hand, the higher the number of averages, the slower the response of the displayed waveform to waveform changes.

alues of the signal within the acquisition interval to get the signal envelope or capture narrow pulses that might be lost. This mode prevents signal aliasing at the expense of exaggerating the noise.
In this mode, the minimum pulse width detected is the sample period.
High Resolution
This mode uses a kind of ultra-sample technique to average sequential sample points to reduce the random noise on the input signal and generate much smoother waveforms on the screen. This is generally used when the sample rate of the digitizer is higher than the storage rate in acquisition memory.

Triggering the Oscilloscope
The trigger system allows you to set specific trigger conditions as required. The oscilloscope captures a wav on the screen once a particular trigger condition is met. For a digital oscilloscope, it samples waveform continuously no matter whether it is stably triggered. Rather, only stable triggering can produce stable display. The trigger module ensures that every time base sweep or acquisition starts from the user-defined trigger condition, namely every sweep is synchronous with the acquisition and the waveforms acquired are overlapped so as to display the stable waveforms.
You should set the triggers based on the features of the input signal. To quickly capture your desired waveforms, you need to understand the signal under test. This oscilloscope provides a variety of trigger types that help you focus on the desired waveform details.

After the oscilloscope starts running, it first fills the pre-trigger buffer. Then, after the pre-trigger buffer is filled, the oscilloscope starts searching for a trigger. While searching for the trigger, the data sampled will still be transmitted to the pre-trigger buffer (the new data will continuously overwrite the previous data). When a trigger is found, the pre-trigger buffer contains the events that occurred just before the trigger. Then, the oscilloscope will fill the post-trigger buffer and display the data in the

8.5 Trigger Holdoff

Trigger holdoff can be help stabilize triggering on complex repetitive waveforms that have multiple edges or other ev series). Holdoff time is specified as the amount of time that the oscilloscope waits for re-arming the trigger circuitry after generating a correct trigger. The oscilloscope will not trigger even if the trigger condition is met during the holdoff time and will only re-arm the trigger circuitry after the holdoff time expires.
For example, to get a stable trigger on the repetitive pulse burst as shown in the figure below, set the holdoff time to be greater than t1 but less than t2.
