Measurement Category
DS1000Z series digital oscilloscopes can make measurements in Measurement
Category I.
This oscilloscope can only be used for measurements within its specified
Measurement Category Definitions
Measurement category I is for measurements performed on circuits not directly
connected to MAINS. Examples are measureme nts on circuits n ot de ri ved from
MAINS, and specially protected (internal) MAINS derived circuits. In the latter case,
transient stresses are variable; for that reason, the transient withstand capability of
the equipment is made known to the user.
Measurement category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly
connected to the low volta ge install ation. Exa mples are measure ments on househol d
appliances, portable tools and similar equipment.
Measurement category III is fo r measure ments perf ormed in the b uilding inst allation.
Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers, wiring,
including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the f ixed
installation, and equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, for
example. Stationary motors with permanent connection to the fixed installation.
Measuremen t c ategory IV is for measurements performed at the source of the
low-voltage installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on
primary overcurrent protection devices and ripple control units.
Ventilation Requirement
This oscilloscope uses fan to force cooling. Please make sure that the air intake and
exhaust areas are free from obstructions and have free air. When using the
oscilloscope in a bench-top or rack setting, provide at least 10 cm clearance beside,
above and behind the instrument for adequate ventilation.
Inadequate ventilation may cause temperature increase which would
damage the instrument. So please keep the instrument well ventilated

compensation procedures are as follows:
1. Perform Step 1, 2, 3 and 4 specified in "Function Inspection".
2. Check the displayed waveforms and compare them with the waveforms in the
following figure.

Pull up the handle vertically for easy carrying of the instrument. When you do
not need the handle, press it down.
2. LAN
Connect the instrument to the network via this interface fo r remote control . This
oscilloscope conforms to the LXI CORE 2011 DEVICE class instrument standards
and can quickly build test system with other instruments.
3. USB DEVICE
You can con nect the oscill oscope to a PictBridge printer or PC via this interface.
When a PC is connected, users can send SCPI commands using the PC software
or control the oscilloscope via user-defined programming. When a printer is
connected, users can print the waveforms displayed on the screen using the
printer.
4. Trigger Out and Pass/Fail
Trigger Out:
The oscilloscope can output a signal that can reflect the current capture
rate of the oscilloscope at each trigger via this interf ace. Connect the signal
to a waveform d isplay device to measure the frequency of the signal. The
measurement result is equal to the current capture rate.

Pass/Fail:
The instrument will output a negative puls e via this connector whe n a failed
waveform is detecte d during the pass/fail test. The instrument continuously
outputs a low level via this conne ctor when no f aile d w a ve form is detected .
5. Source Output

You ca n lock the instrume nt to a fixed location by using the s ecurity lock (please
purchase it yourself) via the lock hole.
7. Fuse
If a new fuse is required, please use the specified fuse (250V, T2A). The
operation method is as follows:
a) Turn off the instrument, disconnect the power, and then remove the power
cord.
b) Insert a small straight screwdriver into the slot at the power cord connector
and pry out the fuse holder gently.
c) Take out the f use an d replace it with a spe cified fuse. Then, install the fuse

Troubleshooting
The commonly encountered failures and their solutions are listed below. When you
encounter those failures, please s olve the m followin g the cor responding ste ps. If the
problem remains still, please contact RIGOL and provide your device information
(acquisition method: Utility SystemSystem Info).
1. The screen is still dark (no display) after you powered on the
instrument.
(1) Check whether the power switch is really on.
(2) Check whether the power is correctly connected.
(3) Check whether the fuse is burned out. If the fuse needs to be changed,
please use the specified fuse.
(4) Restart the instrument after finishing the above inspections.
(5) If it still persists, please contact RIGOL.
2. The signal is sampled but no waveform of the signal is displayed.
(1) Check whether the probe is correctly connected to the item under test.
(2) Check whether signals are generated from the item under test (you can
connect the probe compensat ion signal to the proble matic channel to locate
the problem).
(3) Resample the signal.
3. The voltage amplitude measured is greater or smaller than the actual
value (note that this failure usually only occurs when probe is used).
Check whether the probe ratio of the channel compli es with the at tenuation rat io
of the probe.
4. Waveforms are found to be displayed but not stable.
(1) Check the trigger sign a l source: press MENU (in the trigger control area
(TRIGGER) on the front panel) Source to check whether the trigger
source selected complies with the signal channel actually used.
(2) Check the trigger type: general signals sh oul d use "Edge" trigger and vi deo
signal should use "Video" trigger. Only when t he prop er trigger t ype is used,
can the waveform be displayed stably.
(3) Check the trigger level: adjust the trigger level to the middle of the signal.
(4) Change the trigger holdoff setting.
5. No display is found after pressing RUN/STOP.
Check whether the trigger mode in the trigger control area (TRIGGER) on the
front panel is "Normal" or "Single" and whether the trigger level exceeds the
waveform range. If yes, set the trigger level t o the middl e or press MODE to set
the trigger mode to "Auto".
Note: Pressing AUTO could automatically finish the above setting.

6. The display of waveform is ladder-like.
(1) The horizontal time base might be too low. Increase the horizontal time
base to increase the horizontal resolution and improve the display.
(2) If the display type is "Vectors", the lines between the sample points may
cause ladder-like display. Press DisplayType to set the display type to
"Dots" to solve the problem.
7.I Fail to connect PC or PictBridge printer through USB.
(1) Press UtilityIO SettingUSB Device to check whether the current
setting matches the device currently connected.
(2) Check whether the USB cable is correctly connected to the instrument and
PC.
(3) Check whether the USB cable is in good condition. If needed, restart the
oscilloscope.
8. The USB storage device cannot be recognized.
(1) Check whether the USB storage device can work normally.
(2) Check whether the USB storage device being used is flash type. This
oscilloscope does not support USB3.0 a nd hardware type USB stor a ge
device.
(3) Check whether the capacity of the USB storage device is too large. It is
recommended that the capacity of the USB storage device being used with
this oscilloscope should not exceed 8 GBytes.
(4) Restart the instrument and then insert the USB storage device to check it.
(5) If the USB storage device still cannot be used normally, please contact
7.通过 USB 连接 PC 或 PictBridge 打印机失败:
(1) 按Utility接口设置USB 设备,检查当前设置是否与当前连接的设
备匹配。
(2) 检查 USB 数据线是否与示波器和 PC 连接正常。
(3) 检查 USB 数据线是否完好,必要时重启示波器。
8. U 盘不能被识别:
(1) 检查 U 盘是否可以正常工作。
(2) 确认使用的为 Flash 型 U 盘,本仪器不支持 USB3.0 的 U 盘和硬盘型 U 盘。
(3) 确认使用的 U 盘容量是否过大,本示波器推荐使用不超过 8 GBytes 的 U 盘。
(4) 重新启动仪器后,再插入 U 盘设备进行检查。
(5) 如果仍然无法正常使用 U 盘,请与 RIGOL 联系。
