Output Signal Checks
The procedure that follows checks those characteristics of the output signals that
are listed as checked under Warranted Characteristics in Specifications.
Equipment
required
Two precision 50 Ω coaxial cabl es (Item 4)
One cal ibration generator (Item 10)
Prerequisites See page 4--27. Also, the oscilloscope must have passed Check DC
Voltage M easurement Accuracy on page 4--35.
1. Install the test hookup and preset the instrument controls:
50 Ω coaxial cables
To AUX OUT

TDS7000 oscilloscope
Figure 4- 33: Initial test hookup
a. Hook up test-signal source 1 (See Figure 4--33):
H Connect the standard amplitude output of a calibration generator
through a 50 Ω precision coaxial cable to CH 3.
H Set the calibration generator to output a 0.500 V square wave.
b. Hook up test-signal source 2: Connect the Aux Ou t at the front panel to
CH 2 through a 50 Ω precision cable.
c. Initialize the oscilloscope: Press the DEFAULT SETUP button.
d. Modify the initialized front-panel control settings:
H Press the Vertical CH 1 button to toggle it off.
H Press the Vertical CH 3 button to display that channel.
H Push Trigger Source to toggle the source to CH 3.
