Waveform Invert
When waveform invert is enabled, the waveform display rotates 180 degree relative
to the ground potential. When waveform invert is disabled, the waveform display is
normal. Press CH1  Invert to enable or disable waveform invert.
Vertical Scale
The vertical scale can be adjusted in “Coarse” or “Fine” mode.
Press CH1  Volts/Div to select the desired mode. Rotate VERTICAL SCALE
to adjust the vertical scale (clockwise to reduce the scale and counterclockwise to
increase).
The scale information (such as
) in the channel label at the bottom of
the screen will change accordingly during the adjustment. The adjustable range of
the vertical scale is related to the probe ratio currently set. By default, the probe ratio
is 1X and the adjustable range of the vertical scale is from 1 mV/div to 10 V/div.
 Coarse adjustment (take counterclockwise as an example): set the vertical scale
in 1-2-5 step namely 1 mV/div, 2 mV/div, 5 mV/div, 10 mV/div…10 V/div.
 Fine adjustment: further adjust the vertical scale within a relatively smaller
range to improve vertical resolution. If the amplitude of the input waveform is a
little bit greater than the full scale under the current scale and the amplitude
would be a little bit lower if the next scale is used, fine adjustment can be used
to improve the amplitude of waveform display to view signal details.
Note: you can also press VERTICAL
SCALE to quickly switch between “Coarse”
and “Fine” adjustments.
