Using the Oscilloscope

These exercises show you how to use the oscilloscope inside the analyzer. If you are using an HP 1660CS, HP 1661CS, HP 1662CS, or an HP 1663CS analyzer, you have a built in oscilloscope.

You will start by using the Autoscale feature to set up the oscilloscope. You will also use the Auto Measure feature to measure the period of the training board clock signal.

In this chapter, you will:

Connect the channel 1 oscilloscope probe

Get the waveform on the display with Autoscale

Delete the unused channel from the display

Zoom and scroll through the clock waveform

Measure the clock period manually

Measure the clock period with Auto Measure

Read the pulse voltage with the markers
