5.4 Channel Coupling

The undesired signals can be filtered out by setting the coupling mode. For example, the signal under test is a square waveform with DC offset.
Click or tap the channel status label at the bottom of the screen. Then the Vertical menu is displayed. Click or tap the drop-down button of the Coupling menu to select the coupling mode.
When the coupling mode is "DC": the DC and AC components of the signal
under test can both pass the channel.
When the coupling mode is "AC": the DC components of the signal under test
are blocked.
When the coupling mode is "GND": the DC and AC components of the signal
under test are blocked.
After selecting the coupling mode, the currently selected coupling mode is displayed in the channel status label at the bottom of the screen, as shown in the figure below.
Tip
When the input impedance is set to "50 Ω", the channel coupling is set to DC coupling by

Average
In this mode, the oscilloscope averages the waveforms from multiple samples to reduce the random noise of the input signal and improve the vertical resolution. Greater number of averages can lower the noise and increase the vertical resolution; while at the same time, it will slow the response of the displayed waveform to the waveform changes.
When you select "Average" mode, click or tap the input field for the
Averages menu
item to set it by using the pop-up numeric keypad. Its range is from 2 to 65534. Its default value is 8.
Tip
The number of averages must be the Nth power of 2. When it is not in N power-of-2
increments, a prompt message "Truncation average error" is displayed. At this time, a value
that is smaller than the one you input and the closest to N power-of-2 increments will be input
automatically. For example, if you input 9 with the numeric keypad, the average count will be
input 8 automatically.
Peak
In this mode, the oscilloscope acquires the maximum and minimum values of the signal within the sample interval to get the envelope of the signal or the narrow pulse that might be lost. In this mode, signal aliasing can be prevented, but the noise displayed would be larger.
In this mode, the oscilloscope can display all the pulses whose pulse widths are at least the same as the sample period.
High Resolution
This mode uses a kind of ultra-sample technique to average the neighboring points of the sample waveform 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 digital converter is higher than the storage rate of the acquisition memory.
When you select "High Res" mode, click or tap the drop-down button of
bits to select
9, 10, 12, 14, or 16. Its default value is 9.
Tip
The averaging modes of the "Average" and "High Res" are different. The former uses
"Multi-sample Average" and the latter uses "Single Sample Average".
In "High Res" mode, the oscilloscope improves the measurement accuracy at the cost of
bandwidth. Each time the sampling rate changes, a window displaying the current
bandwidth appears in the sample rate menu.

7.3 Sample Rate

Sampling is the process of converting the analog signal into the digital signal at a specified time interval and then restoring them in sequence. The sample rate is the reciprocal of the time interval.
STOP/RUN
In the Horizontal system menu, "SampleRate" shows the current sample rate. The current sample rate is displayed in the acquisition label at the top of the screen, as shown in the figure below.
The sample rate of the analog channel is related to the current channel mode. The maximum real-time sample rate in the single-channel mode is 20 GSa/s, and the maximum real-time sample rate in the half-channel mode and full-channel mode is 10 GSa/s.
Single-channel mode: CH1 and CH2 are considered as a group; CH3 and CH4
are considered as another group. If one of the two channels in each group is enabled, it is called single-channel mode.
Half-channel mode: CH1 and CH2 are considered as a group; CH3 and CH4 are
considered as another group. If two channels in either one of the groups are enabled, it is called half-channel mode.
Full-channel mode: CH1, CH2, CH3, and CH4 are all enabled.
The impact of low sample rate on the waveform:
Waveform Distortion: when the sample rate is too low, some waveform details
are lost, and the sample waveform displayed is rather different from the actual waveform of the signal.

Waveform Aliasing: when the sample rate is twice lower than the actual signal
frequency (Nyquist Frequency), the frequency of the waveform rebuilt from the sample data is smaller than the actual signal frequency.
Waveform Leakage: when the sample rate is too low, the waveform rebuilt from
the sample data does not reflect all the actual signal information.

7.4 Memory Depth

Memory depth refers to the number of points of the oscilloscope that can store in one trigger acquisition. It reflects the storage capability of the acquisition storage. This oscilloscope is equipped with a standard memory depth of up to 1 Gpts (2 Gpts for option).

Ɵ = ±arcsin(A/B) or ±arcsin(C/D)
If the principal axis of the ellipse is within Quadrant I and III, the phase deviation angle obtained should be within Quadrant I and IV, namely within (0 to π/2) or (3π/2 to 2π). If the principal axis of the ellipse is within Quadrant II and IV, the phase deviation angle obtained should be within Quadrant II and III, namely within (π/2 to π) or (π to 3π/2).
The XY mode can be used to measure the phase deviation occurred when the signal under test passes through a circuit network. Connect the oscilloscope to the circuit to monitor the input and output signals of the circuit.

8 To Trigger the Oscilloscope

As for trigger, you set certain trigger condition according to the requirement and when a waveform in the waveform stream meets this condition, the oscilloscope captures this waveform as well as the neighboring part, and displays them on the screen. For the digital oscilloscope, it samples waveform continuously no matter whether it is stably triggered, but only stable trigger can be stably displayed. 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 is overlapped so as to display the stable waveforms.
Trigger settings should be based on the features of the input signal. To quickly capture the desired waveform, you need to understand the signal under test. This oscilloscope provides abundant trigger types that help you focus on the desired waveform details.

Signals input from analog channels CH1-CH4 can all be used as trigger sources. No matter whether the channel selected is enabled, the channel can work normally.
AC line input
The trigger signal is obtained from the AC power input of the oscilloscope. AC trigger is usually used to measure signals relevant to the AC power frequency. For example, stably triggering the waveform output from the transformer of a transformer substation. It is mainly used in related measurements of the power industry.

External trigger input
The external trigger source can be used to trigger on the fifth channel while all the other four channels are acquiring data. The trigger signal (e.g. external clock or signal of the circuit under test) will be connected to EXT trigger source via the external trigger input terminal [EXT] connector. You can set the trigger conditions within the range of the trigger level (from -8 V to +8 V).

8.2 Trigger Level

The adjustment of the trigger level is related to the type of the trigger source.
When the trigger source is CH1-CH4, and when the multifunction knob selects
the trigger function, rotate the knob at the upper-right part of the small screen or drag the adjustment icon (as shown in the figure below) under the Level menu to adjust the trigger level. During the adjustment, a trigger level line (the color of the trigger level line is the same as that of the channel) and a
trigger label " with the variation of the trigger level. When you stopping modifying the trigger level, the trigger level line disappears in about 2 s. The current trigger level is displayed in the the trigger information label at the top of the screen.

trigger level. The current trigger level is displayed in the the trigger information label at the top of the screen.
For this trigger source, only the variation of the trigger level value is displayed on the screen during the adjustment of the trigger level, without displaying the trigger level lines on the screen.
To ensure the waveforms to be better triggered, for a trigger with a single level, you can directly click or tap "50%" in the level menu or press down the trigger level knob to make the level move to the middle of the waveform. However, for a trigger (e.g. Slope trigger, Runt trigger, Window trigger, and MIL-STD-1553) with two levels, you need to click or tap "90%" and "10%" in the level menu or press down the trigger level knob to make the level move to within the range of the waveform amplitude.

8.3 Trigger Mode

The following is the schematic diagram of the acquisition memory. To easily understand the trigger event, we classify the acquisition memory into the pre-trigger buffer and post-trigger buffer.
Figure 8.1 Schematic Diagram of the Acquisition Memory
After the system runs, the oscilloscope operates by first filling the pre-trigger buffer. It starts searching for a trigger after the pre-trigger buffer is filled. 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 data acquired just before the trigger. Then, the oscilloscope will fill the post-trigger buffer and display the data in the acquisition
memory. If the acquisition is activated via repeat this process; if the acquisition is activated via tapping the "Single" icon on the

small screen, the oscilloscope will stop after finishing a single acquisition (you can pan and zoom the currently displayed waveform).
DS70000 provides Auto, Normal, and Single trigger modes, and the default is Auto.
Click or tap the trigger information label at the top of the screen or the "Trigger" icon on the small screen to open the "Trigger" menu. Click or tap the sub-items for the Sweep menu to quickly switch the current trigger mode. The trigger mode is displayed in the trigger information label at the top of the screen: A (Auto), N (Normal), and S (Single).
Auto: In this trigger mode, if the specified trigger conditions are not found, triggers are forced and acquisitions are made so as to display the waveforms. This trigger mode should be used when the signal level is unknown or the DC should be displayed as well as when forcible trigger is not necessary as the trigger condition always occurs.
Normal: In this trigger mode, triggers and acquisitions only occur when the specified trigger conditions are found. This trigger mode should be used when the signal is with low repetition rate or only the event specified by the trigger setting needs to be sampled as well as when auto trigger should be prevented to acquire stable display.
Single: In this trigger mode, the oscilloscope performs a single trigger and acquisition when the specified trigger conditions are found, and then stops. This trigger mode should be used when you need to perform a single acquisition of the specified event and analyze the acquisition result (you can pan and zoom the currently displayed waveform, and the subsequent waveform data will not overwrite the current waveform). After a single trigger mode is initiated, the operating status of the oscilloscope is in "STOP" state.
Normal and Single trigger modes, pressing Force in the trigger menu or the
In "Force" icon on the small screen can generate a trigger signal forcibly.

8.4 Trigger Coupling

Trigger coupling decides which kind of components will be transmitted to the trigger module. Please distinguish it from " when the trigger type is Edge and the trigger source is an analog channel.

DC: allows DC and AC components to pass the trigger path.
AC: blocks the DC components and attenuates the signals.
LFR: blocks the DC components and rejects the low-frequency components.
HFR: rejects the high frequency components.
Tip
When "AC" or "LFR" is selected for the coupling mode, no trigger level lines and trigger icons
are displayed. When you adjust the trigger level, you can only see the changes of the trigger
level values in the trigger information label at the top of the screen.

8.5 Trigger Holdoff

Trigger holdoff can be used to stably trigger on complex repetitive waveforms that have multiple edges (or other events) between waveform repetitions (such as pulse series). Holdoff time indicates the time that the oscilloscope waits for re-arming the trigger module 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 module after the holdoff time expires.
For example, to stably trigger the repetitive pulse series as shown in the figure below, the holdoff time should be set to a value that is greater than t1 and smaller than t2.
Figure 8.2 Trigger Holdoff

default, the holdoff time is 8 ns) with the pop-up numeric keypad. The adjustable range of the holdoff time is from 8 ns to 10 s.

8.6 Noise Rejection

Noise rejection can reject the high frequency noise in the signal and reduce the possibility of miss-trigger of the oscilloscope.
Click or tap the trigger information label at the top of the screen or the "Trigger" icon on the small screen to open the "Trigger" menu. Click or tap the ON/OFF tab for the
Noise Reject menu to enable or disable the noise rejection function.
