2. Once connected, your operating system should detect the device. If drivers were installed correctly, the device should be recognized by the oscilloscope software.
3. Connect your oscilloscope probes to the CH1 and/or CH2 BNC input connectors as required for your measurement. Ensure probes are securely attached.
4. For accurate measurements, perform probe compensation if using passive probes. Refer to your probe's manual for specific instructions.

5. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

This section outlines the basic steps for operating your VOLTCRAFT DSO-2020 USB oscilloscope.

5.1 Запуск праграмнага забеспячэння

After successful installation and connection, launch the VOLTCRAFT oscilloscope application from your computer's desktop or start menu. The software interface will display a virtual oscilloscope screen, similar to a traditional benchtop unit.

5.2 Basic Signal Acquisition

1. Connect Signal: Attach the probe to the circuit point you wish to measure.
2. Выбар канала: In the software, enable the desired channel (CH1 or CH2).
3. Вертыкальная шкала (вольты/дзяленне): Adjust the vertical scale to fit the signal amplitude on the screen.
4. Гарызантальная шкала (час/дзяленне): Adjust the horizontal scale to view the signal's period or frequency.
5. Налады трыгера: Configure the trigger source, type (edge, pulse), and level to stabilize the waveform. The software provides controls similar to a physical oscilloscope.
6. Аўтаматычная налада: Utilize the automatic setup function within the software. This feature automatically adjusts the vertical and horizontal settings to display the input signal optimally.

5.3 Data Processing and Export

The DSO-2020 USB allows for advanced data processing and storage:

• Захоўванне сігналаў: Captured waveforms can be saved directly to your computer for later analysis.
• Функцыі вымярэння: The software includes various automatic measurement functions (e.g., Vpp, Vrms, Frequency, Period).
• Экспарт дадзеных: Measurement data can be exported to formats such as Excel for further analysis and reporting.
• ЛабараторыяVIEW Сумяшчальнасць: The device is compatible with LabVIEW, allowing for integration into custom measurement and automation systems.

6. Тэхнічнае абслугоўванне

Правільнае абслугоўванне забяспечвае даўгавечнасць і дакладнасць вашага асцылографа.

• Уборка: Для чысткі вонкавай паверхні прылады выкарыстоўвайце мяккую сухую тканіну. Не выкарыстоўвайце абразіўныя ачышчальнікі або растваральнікі.
• захоўванне: Store the oscilloscope in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use. Avoid extreme temperatures.
• Сыход за зондам: Handle probes carefully. Avoid bending or stressing the cables. Store them properly to prevent damage.
• Абнаўленні праграмнага забеспячэння: Regularly check the VOLTCRAFT webсайт для абнаўлення праграмнага забеспячэння і драйвераў, каб забяспечыць аптымальную прадукцыйнасць і сумяшчальнасць.

7. Выпраўленне непаладак

У гэтым раздзеле разглядаюцца распаўсюджаныя праблемы, з якімі вы можаце сутыкнуцца.

• Прылада не распазнана:
  • Пераканайцеся, што USB-кабель надзейна падключаны як да асцылографа, так і да ПК.
  • Verify that the drivers are correctly installed. Reinstall if necessary.
  • Паспрабуйце іншы порт USB на вашым кампутары.
• Няма сігналу:
  • Check that the probe is properly connected to the input channel and the circuit under test.
  • Ensure the correct channel is enabled in the software.
  • Адрэгулюйце вертыкальную (вольты/дзяленне) і гарызантальную (час/дзяленне) шкалы.
  • Check trigger settings; an incorrect trigger level can prevent a stable display.
  • Verify the signal source is active and within the oscilloscope's measurement range.
• Нестабільная форма хвалі:
  • Adjust the trigger level and trigger type (e.g., edge trigger).
  • Ensure the trigger source is set to the channel with the signal.
  • Check for noise in the measurement environment.
