Displaying an Unknown Signal with

Connect-and-View™ (Auto Set)

The Connect-and-View™ function enables hands-off

operation to display complex unknown signals in

SCOPE/METER mode. This function optimizes the

position, range, time base, and triggering and assures a

stable display on nearly all waveforms. If the signal

changes, the setup will track these changes.

To enable the Connect-and-View™ function, do the

following:

• Connect the red test lead from red Input A to the

unknown signal to be measured

Perform an Auto Set.

Certain details of the waveform can be made visible by

manually changing amplitude, time base, waveform

position, and triggering. How to do that is explained in the

course of this Guide.

Freezing the Screen

You can freeze the screen (Waveforms and Readings)

with the HOLD/RUN key. This allows you read the screen

while the Test Tool has been disconnected from the

Device to be checked.

Freeze the screen. HOLD appears in

the bottom of the reading screen.

Start the measurement again.

Scope/Meter Measurements

Make the input connections as described on page 6.

Selecting the SCOPE/METER mode

Open the application mode menu.

Highlight SCOPE/METER

Enter the SCOPE/METER mode.
