Using autoset
Use Autoset to quickly and automatically set up the instrument (acquisition, horizontal, trigger, and vertical) based on the
characteristics of the input signal. Autoset makes adjustments to the signal such that the waveform displays two or three cycles
with the trigger level near the midlevel.
1. Connect the probe, and then select the
input channel. See Setting up analog
signal input on page 46.
2. To execute an Autoset, select Horiz/Acq
and then Autoset or push the AUTOSET
button on the Auxiliary Front Panel.
3. Click Undo to undo the last Autoset.
Parameters that are not affected by
Autoset retain their settings.
Quick tips
■
Autoset automatically sets up the analog channels.
■
On instruments with iCapture, autoset automatically sets up the iCapture channels.
■
To position the waveform appropriately, Autoset may change the vertical position. Autoset may also adjust vertical offset.
■
If you use Autoset when one or more channels are displayed, the instrument selects the lowest numbered channel for
horizontal scaling and triggering. You can individually control the vertical scaling of each channel.
■
If you use Autoset when no channels are displayed, the instrument turns on channel one (Ch 1) and scales it.
■
Close Autoset Undo control window by clicking the X. After Autoset Undo closes, you can still undo the last Autoset by
selecting the Undo Last Autoset command from the Edit menu.
■
Stop the Autoset Undo control window from opening automatically by changing the User Preferences in the Utilities menu.
