Setting Up the the Oscilloscope

  • We connected the BNC cable from the Lo output on the function generator to the CH 1 input on the Oscilloscope. The Ch 1 is set for DC coupling, with the volts/division set to coarse. The trigger is rather confusing at this time, but we found that the best setting for viewing a stable sine wave is auto trigger with an edge type. On the function generator, we multiplied the wave by 2 with the large dial, left the freq multiplier on x1 setting. We experimented with the sweep features, but i proved itself to be useless for this lab, so we left it off. The DC offset was left at 0.
