- MOUNT THE COMPONENTS IN THE ORDER INDICATED BELOW
The oscilloscope consists of twe PCBs:
1 The small PCB PPCMK2PS, which, among others, supplies the negative voltage; the on/off
switch, the fuse and the supply connector are also mounted on this PCB.
2 The base PCB P7103, which the rest of the circuit is mounted on
Mount the electrolytic capacitors (watch the polarity!)
C1, C2, C6, C7, C33, C34: 4U7 (4J7J) or (4T7C)
C22, C71: 100µF (100J0D)
C30: 1000µF (1000J0D)
Mount the crystal oscillator (X032)
X1: 32.000mhz Position it carefully; the corner must coincide with the PCB marking!
Mount the REED relays
Attention:
Two types of relay are used; in order to distinguish between them, the code number is
completed with an “A” or a “C”.
Also pay attention to the position of the notch.
RY3, RY4, RY5, RY6: 1A (VR05R051’A )
RY1, RY2, RY7, RY8: 1C (VR05R051’C)
Mount the sub D connector
J7: 25-pole male connector (also solder the mount part) (SUBD25M)
• Mount the rear panel. Fasten the SUB-D connector with its two own bolts.
R/TO220
M/TO220
BT30100
(CKRPCMK2)
• Mount the clamp and IC23 voltage regulator 7805 . Use silicon compound to ensure
cooling. Be carefull not to damage the regulator, use 10mm bolts, lock washers and nuts.
Do NOT forget isolators. Solder regulator leads AFTER fixation.
Nut M3 MR3
Washer RM3K
Isolator
Volt regulator
UA7805
Isolating mica
Bend
leads
Bolt 10mm M3
Use two 10 mm bolts, lock washer and nut to connect the clamp to the rear panel. Do not
forget to use plenty of silicon compound !
Degrease the alu frontpanel with a non-aggresive solvent ( eg alcohol). Stick the
frontpanel-foil carefull on the alu panel. Make sure it is perfectly centered.
(FPCMK2 + FPPCMK2)
Cut the excess border from the front sticker
• Mount both BNC connectors on the front panel. Make sure they are mounted in upright
position.
now IN PLASTIC!! (BNCICHAS)
• Fasten the switch onto the sub chassis as shown. Be sure to mount it neatly horizontal.
REMOVE PROTECTIVE FILM FROM SUB CHASSIS IF PRESENT!
Install the software
Connect unit with printer port LPT1 of computer.
Start the PCS32.BAT program. This is an MSDOS program but can generally be run from
Windows.
Set the TIME/DIV switch to 1ms by using the mouse, (click on the figures).
Press on RUN ON
Press CH1 to ON.
Press CH2 to OFF
Press TRIG to OFF
Set switch SW3 to the GND position.
Adjust the Y POSITION potentiometer RV5 until the line can be seen.
Set the VOLT/DIV switches to 1V and then 5V by using the mouse. After selecting these two
positions the lines must not move vertically. If this is not the case, then adjust RV4 until the
movement is minimal.
Follow the same test and adjustment procedures for channel 2 :
Press CH2 to ON
Press CH1 to OFF
Set switch SW2 to the GND position.
Adjust the Y position potentiometer RV2 until the line can be seen.
Set the VOLT/DIV switches to 1V and then 5V by using the mouse. After selecting these two
positions the lines must not move vertically. If this is not the case, then adjust RV1 until the
movement is minimal.
Adjustment of the vertical amplifiers
Set the TIME/DIV switches to 1mS.
Set channel 1 ON and channel 2 OFF
Set the VOLT/DIV switch to 1V.
Set the line to the center of the screen.
Connect an X1 probe or a direct connection to channel 1.
Connect the channel 1 probe to a sinewave signal generator.
Set the sinewave generator to 2.5Vrms output (check with true RMS voltmeter !)
Set the switch on the device to the DC position.
Adjust RV6 until the true RMS readout is 2.5Vrms
For the 2nd channel:
Same procedure as for channel 1, except for this:
Set channel 2 ON and channel 1 OFF
Adjust RV3 until the true RMS readout is 2.5Vrms
Set TIME/DIV to 0.1ms.
Use an X1 probe.
Use an insulated screwdriver (small metal tip is allowed).
Channel 1:
Set the VOLT/DIV switch to 1V.
Connect the probe to test point J9.
Adjust CV3 until the top of the square wave is as flat as possible.
Set the VOLT/DIV switch to 0.1V.
Connect the probe to test point J10.
Adjust CV4 until the top of the square is as flat as possible.
2nd channel:
Set the VOLTS/DIV switch to 1V
Connect the probe to test point J9
Adjust CV1 until the top of the square is as flat as possible.
Set theVOLTS/DIV switch to 0.1V
Connect the probe to test point J10.
Adjust CV2 until the top of the square is as flat as possible.
Not correct (overcompensated)
Correct Not correct (under-
compensated)
NOTE: If an X10 probe is used then it must also be set to the X10 position. It can then be used
in the same way as above but with the difference that the probe trimming capacitor has to be
adjusted.
