Safety Information
General Safety Summary
Carefully read the following safety precautions to avoid any personal injury or
damage to the instrument and any products connected to it. To avoid potential
hazards, please use the instrument as specified.
Use Proper Power Line
Only the power cord designed for the instrument and authorized by local country could be
used.
Ground the Instrument
The instrument is grounded through the protective earth conductor of the power line. To
avoid electric shock, please make sure the instrument is grounded correctly before
connecting its input or output terminals.
Connect the Signal Wire Correctly
The potential of the signal wire is equal to the earth, so do not connect the signal wire to a
high voltage.
Look Over All Terminals‟ Ratings
To avoid fire or electric shock, please look over all ratings and sign instruction of the
instrument. Before connecting the instrument, please read the manual carefully to gain
more information about the ratings.
Use Proper Overvoltage Protection
Make sure that no overvoltage (such as that caused by a thunderstorm) can reach the
product, or else the operator might expose to danger of electrical shock.
Electrostatic Prevention
Operate in an electrostatic discharge protective area environment to avoid damages
induced by static discharge. Always ground both the internal and external conductors of
the cable to release static before connecting.
Keep Well Ventilation
Inadequate ventilation may cause increasing of temperature, which will eventually
damage the instrument. So keep well ventilation and inspect the intake and fan regularly.
Avoid Circuit or Components Exposed
Do not touch exposed contacts or components when the power is on.
II User Manual
SIGLENT
Use proper Fuse
Use only the specified fuse.
Do Not Operate Without Covers
Do not operate the instrument with covers or panels removed.
Do Not Operate With Suspected Failures.
If you suspect damage occurs to the instrument, have it inspected by qualified service
personnel before further operations. Any maintenance, adjustment or replacement
especially to circuits or accessories must be performed by SIGLENT authorized
personnel.
Do Not Operate in Wet Conditions.
In order to avoid short circuiting to the interior of the device or electric shock, please do
not operate in a humid environment.
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.
In order to avoid damages to the device or personal injuries, it is important to operate the
device away from an explosive atmosphere.
Keep Product Surfaces Clean and Dry.
To avoid the influence of dust and/or moisture in air, please keep the surface of device
clean and dry.
Handling Safety
Please handle with care during transportation to avoid damages to buttons, knob
interfaces and other parts on the panels.
Only probe assemblies which meet the manufacturer’s specifications shall be used.
When use 2X/…/10000X probe assemblies, the probe assemblies shall be insulated from
the measured circuits by double or reinforced insulation.
All probe assemblies should meet the requirements of UL 61010-031 and
CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 61010-031-07.
Not to position the equipment so that it is difficult to operate the disconnecting device
(detachable plug).
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection
provided by the equipment may be impaired

Measurement Category
Measurement Categories
This oscilloscope can make measurements in other circuits that are not directly connected
to mains.
WARNING
This oscilloscope can only be used for measurements within its specified
measurement categories.
Not to use the product for measurements within other measurement
categories, such as CAT II, CAT III, CAT IV.
Not to use the equipment for measurements on mains circuits
Measurement Category Definitions
Measurement category II is for measurements performed on circuits directly connected to
the 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, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and
equipment for industrial use and some other equipment, for example. Stationary motors
with permanent connection to the fixed installation.
Measurement category IV is for measurements performed at the source of the low-voltage
installation. Examples are electricity meters and measurements on primary over current
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.
WARNING
Inadequate ventilation may cause temperature increase which would damage
the instrument. So please keep the instrument well ventilated during operation
and inspect the intake and fan regularly.

Power-on Inspection
When the oscilloscope is energized, press the power key at the lower-left corner of the
front panel to start the oscilloscope. During the start-up process, the oscilloscope
performs a series of self-tests and you can hear the sound of relay switching. After the
self-test is finished, the welcome screen is displayed.
To Connect the Probe
SIGLENT provides passive probes for the oscilloscopes. For detailed technical
information of the probes, please refer to the corresponding Probe User’s Guide.
Connect the Probe:
1. Connect the BNC terminal of the probe to a channel BNC connector of the
oscilloscope at the front panel.
2. Connect the probe tip to the circuit point to be tested and connect the ground alligator
clip of the probe to the circuit ground terminal.

configuration.
2. Connect the ground alligator clip of the probe to the “Ground Terminal” under the
probe compensation signal output terminal.

3. Use the probe to connect the input terminal of CH1 of the oscilloscope and the
“Compensation Signal Output Terminal” of the probe.
4. Press the Auto Setup.
5. Observe the waveform on the display. In normal condition, the display should be a
square waveform as shown in the figure below:
6. Use the same method to test the other channels. If the square waveforms actually
shown do not match that in the figure above, please perform “Probe Compensation”

WARNING
To avoid electric shock during the use of probe, please make sure that the
insulated wire of the probe is in good condition and do not touch the metallic
part of the probe when the probe is connected to high voltage source
Probe Compensation
When the probes are used for the first time, you should compensate the probes to match
the input channels of the oscilloscope. Non-compensated or poorly compensated probes
may cause measurement inaccuracy or error. The probe compensation procedures are as
follows.
1. Set the switch to 10X on the probe.
2. Perform steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 of “Function Inspection” in the previous section.
3. Check the waveforms displayed and compare them with the following:
Over Perfectly Under
Compensated Compensated Compensated
4. Use a nonmetallic driver to adjust the low-frequency compensation adjustment hole
on the probe until the waveform displayed is as the “Perfectly compensated” in the
figure above.
