Determine and set eye finder Position (500 Mb/s mode)
1 On the 8133A pulse generator, in the PULSE setup for 
CHANNEL 2, press the COMP button to return the 
outputs to normal.
2 Change the oscilloscope’s horizontal position to 725 ps (or 
as required) to center the measured pulse on the 
oscilloscope display.
3 Verify the DC offset and adjust it if necessary. See 
page 41.
4 Verify the oscilloscope Deskew and adjust if necessary. 
See  page 42.
5 Adjust the measured pulse width from the pulse generator 
to 1.5 ns (minus the test margin) as described on 
page 43. 
Do not change the pulse generator frequency yet.
6 Select the Sampling tab.
7 Click  Thresholds and Sample Positions.... A dialog appears

9 If the blue bars are not vertically aligned, align them. See 
page 49.
10 Grab the blue bar for “My Bus 1” and move it to 
approximately 600 ps. All blue bars will follow.
11 Run  eye finder and note the average sampling position 
chosen by eye finder:______ps. In the following example, 
the average sampling position is 600 ps. Note that in this 
step, you place the blue bars in the narrow window (not 
the wide window) that appears just to the right of zero in 
the eye finder display. Then run eye finder. The position
