Functional Tests
The purpose of these procedures is to confirm that the oscilloscope functions
properly. The only equipment required is one of the standard-accessory probes
and, to check the file system, a 3.5 inch, 720 K or 1.44 Mbyte floppy disk.

and, to check the file system, a 3.5 inch, 720 K or 1.44 Mbyte floppy disk.
CAUTION. The optional P6245 probes that can be used with this oscilloscope
provide an extremely low loading capacitance (<1 pF) to ensure the best
possible signal reproduction. These probes should not be used to measure
signals exceeding

±
8 volts, or errors in signal measurement will be observed.
Above 40 volts, damage to the probe may result. To make measurements beyond
±
10 volts, use either the P6139A probe (good to 500 volts), or refer to the
catalog for a recommended probe.
STOP. These procedures verify functions; that is, they verify that the oscilloscope
features operate. They do not verify that they operate within limits.
features operate. They do not verify that they operate within limits.
Therefore, when the instructions in the functional tests that follow call for you to
verify that a signal appears on-screen “that is about five divisions in amplitude”
or “has a period of about six horizontal divisions,” etc., do NOT interpret the
quantities given as limits. Operation within limits is checked in Performance
Tests, which begin on page 4–15.

STOP. DO NOT make changes to the front-panel settings that are not called out
in the procedures. Each verification procedure will require you to set the
oscilloscope to certain default settings before verifying functions. If you make
changes to these settings, other than those called out in the procedure, you may
obtain invalid results. In this case, just redo the procedure from step 1.
