PROBE ADJUST
– Contact
At this contact a square wave signal of 1 kHz or 1 MHz with a rise time
<
of
5 ns and an output impedance of 50 Ω is available for the adjust-
ment of probes other than 1:1, the amplitude is appr. 0.2 V
adjustment purposes neither the frequency, nor the duty cycle nor the
exact amplitude are of concern.
The frequency of the square wave depends on the setting of the TIME/
15
DIV
selector: between 0.2 s/DIV and 100 µs/DIV the frequency will
be 1 kHz and between 50 µs/DIV to 100 ns/DIV it will be 1 MHz. See the
chapter „First time operation and initial settings and „Probe adjustment
and application."
PROBE ADJUST
: This contact is the ground connection for the
probe.
EXT.TRIG/Z-INP – BNC connector
31
This is either the external trigger or the external intensity modulation
input . The input impedance is 1 MΩ II 15 pF. The ground of this connector
is connected to the chassis and thus to the mains safety earth. By shortly
pressing the Z-INP
28
button the function of the input can be changed.
EXT.TRIG: This BNC connector is the external trigger input if the Z-INP
LED is extinguished. The trigger source is selected with the buttons
16
to
19
; if external triggering is selected, the Z input will be automa-
tically disabled.
Z-INP: Z modulation is only possible if the Z-INP
It is not possible to combine Z modulation with either external triggering
or with the „Component Tester" function, selecting one of these will
disable the Z modulation. With 0 V at this input the trace intensity will
not be influenced, with 5 V TTL level the trace will be fully suppressed;
do not apply higher voltages.

Selection of CH1, CH 2, DUAL, ADD, XY and Component Tester modes,
the active mode is indicated by the respective LED lighting up. Change of
modes just requires shortly pressing the button of the desired function.
The modes do not affect the trigger control status.
CH 1: This button has a dual function: it either selects single channel
1 operation or allows access to the settings memory 1. Single channel
CH 1 operation will automatically also select CH 1 as the trigger source

CH 2: This button has a dual function: it either selects single channel 2
operation or allows access to the settings memory 2. Single channel
CH2 operation will automatically also select CH2 as the trigger source
unless external or line triggering were selected, this will be indicated
by the trigger source button

DUAL: This button has a dual function: it either selects the dual channel
mode or allows access to the settings memory 3. The trigger settings
existing before selecting DUAL mode remain valid unless they are
now changed intentionally. In DUAL mode the LED will light up. In dual
channel mode the channel switching may be alternated or chopped.
ADD: This button has a dual function: it either selects the ADD mode or
allows access to the settings memory 4. The trigger settings existing
before switching to ADD remain valid unless they are now changed
intentionally. The active ADD mode is indicated by the LED lighting up.
Addition of CH 1 and CH 2 mode:
In this mode the signals of channels 1 and 2 are algebraically added, if
CH 2 is inverted CH1 – CH 2 will be displayed. CH 2 – CH 1 is not available.

controls. See the respective paragraph in the introductory part of this
manual for further information, because the use of this mode requires
much care in order to avoid false measurements!
XY: This button has a dual function: it either selects the XY mode or it al-
lows access to the settings memory 5. If XY is active, the LED will light up.
XY operation: In XY mode the following displays/indicators will be
turned off:
1. The time base speed display.
2. The displays/indicators of trigger source, slope, coupling, hold-
off time.
The existing trigger control settings before switching to XY are pre-
served, however.
Also all controls belonging to these displays/indicators will be disabled.

If COMPONENT TESTER mode is selected, the LED will light up. By
pressing any other button the COMPONENT TESTER will be disabled.
Operation of the COMPONENT TESTER
The button COMP alternates between scope and Component TESTER
operation; when returning to scope operation, the last settings will be
resumed. See also the chapter „Component Tester". In this mode the
