Standard Setting, Analog to Digital Mode Switching | Fluke PM3370B

HOW TO USE THE INSTRUMENT

4 - 11

STANDARD SETTING

-Simultaneously press the STATUS and TEXT OFF keys.

-Connect the Probe Adjust signal to channel 1.

The Probe Adjust signal, now supplied to the input, is a square wave with a lower level of 0V and a top level of 600 mV. The oscilloscope always operates in analog mode after a recall of the standard setting.

-Press the AUTOSET key for optimum signal display.

ANALOG TO DIGITAL MODE SWITCHING

Switching from analog to digital mode and vice-versa can be done by pressing the yellow ANALOG key. If no Digital mode-only features were activated, you can switch between the modes with no changes in the display.

-Press the ANALOG key again.

The oscilloscope is automatically set in the digital mode. This is indicated by a message ’DIGITAL MODE’ that appears briefly on the screen.
