Acquiring Waveforms
CSA8000B & TDS8000B User Manual 3-13
NOTE. Autoset sets the vertical position to zero and adjusts the vertical offset to
center the signal in the display.
If a standard mask is active for the selected waveform, Autoset adjusts the
selected waveform record to match the mask, if possible. Autoset adjusts the
vertical scale and offset, horizontal scale, position, and reference parameters as
required for the mask standard.
You may want to revert to the factory default setup; if so, use the following
procedure to reset the instrument:
Overview To reset to factory defaults Control elements and resources
Prerequisites 1. The instrument is powered on and running.
See Power On Instrument on page 1--13.
Execute 2. Push the Default Setup button.
End of Procedure
This section contains background information that can help you more effectively
set up the acquisition window of each channel.
Input. This instrument samples sequentially, in order to provide superior
bandwidth and time resolution. Sequential sampling systems sample the input
without scaling it (they have a fixed dynamic range); therefore, input protection
and dynamic range are necessarily limited.
CAUTION. Do not overdrive the inputs. Also observe static-safe procedures and
cautions as outlined in the sampling-module user manual. Sampling modules are
very sensitive to ESD.
