2 Testing Performance
4 Verify the trigger sensitivity at maximum frequency for 
trigger range of 8.0 V.
a Press the Mode/Coupling key, press the External softkey, 
then press the Range softkey and use the Entry knob to set 
the range to 8.0 V.
b Adjust the signal generator output for reading on the 
power meter of 625µW. (500mV
pp
 = 176.78mV rms, 
Power = Vin

/50Ω = 625µW.)
c Check for stable triggering and adjust the trigger level if 
necessary. Triggering is indicated by the Trig’d indicator at 
the top of the display. When it is flashing, the oscilloscope 
is not triggered. When it is not flashing, the oscilloscope is 
triggered.
d Record the results as Pass or Fail in the Performance Test 
Record (see page 57).
Test External Trigger Sensitivity (4-channel models)
This test applies to 4-channel models only. 
Verify the external trigger sensitivity at these settings:
• All 4-channel models:
500 MHz, 500 mV
