4. Installation
- Déballage: Carefully remove the oscilloscope and all accessories from the packaging. Verify that all included components (power cord, USB cable, 4x 150MHz probes) are present.
- Connexion électrique : Connect the provided power cord to the AC input on the rear panel of the oscilloscope and then to a suitable AC power outlet (100 V~240 V).
- Mise sous tension : Press the power button located on the front panel to turn on the device. The display will illuminate, and the system will initiate its startup sequence.
- Connexion de la sonde : Connect the 150MHz probes to the desired input channels (CH1-CH4) on the front panel. Ensure a secure connection.
- Initial Probe Compensation: Before taking measurements, it is recommended to perform probe compensation to ensure accurate readings. Refer to the detailed user guide for specific instructions on probe compensation.
5. Mode d'emploi
This section covers basic operational procedures for the DS1054Z oscilloscope.
5.1 Acquisition de formes d'onde de base
- Signal de connexion : Connect the probe to the signal source you wish to measure.
- Sélectionnez la chaîne : Press the corresponding channel button (e.g., CH1) to enable the channel.
- Configuration automatique : For a quick display of the waveform, press the AUTO button. The oscilloscope will automatically adjust vertical, horizontal, and trigger settings.
- Réglages manuels : Use the vertical scale (V/div) and position knobs for each channel, and the horizontal scale (s/div) and position knobs to fine-tune the waveform display.
5.2 Fonctions de déclenchement
The DS1054Z offers various trigger types to stabilize and capture specific events.
- Déclencheur de bord : Triggers on a rising or falling edge of a signal.
- Pulse Width Trigger: Triggers on pulses of a specified width.
- Déclencheur de pente : Triggers on signals with a specific rise or fall time.
- Déclencheur vidéo : Déclencheurs sur signaux vidéo standard.
- Pattern Trigger: Triggers when a specific logic pattern is met across multiple channels.
- Duration Trigger: Triggers on events lasting a specified duration.
To access trigger settings, press the TRIGGER MENU button and use the soft keys and multi-function knob to configure the desired trigger type and parameters.

5.3 Waveform Record and Playback
The DS1054Z allows for recording and playback of waveforms, which is useful for capturing transient events or analyzing long signal sequences.
- Access Record Function: Navigate to the waveform record menu (refer to the full user manual for exact menu path).
- Configurer l'enregistrement : Set the desired record length and other parameters.
- Démarrer/arrêter l'enregistrement : Initiate recording to capture waveforms. Stop recording when the desired data is acquired.
- Lecture: Utilisez les commandes de lecture pour rejouerview the recorded waveforms.
