Operation
The Auto Setup feature of the Tektronix oscilloscopes (models 2445B, 2465B, and 2467B) allows users to quickly display a clear signal. To use Auto Setup, connect a signal to an input, turn on the input channel, set the input coupling as desired, and press the AUTO SETUP button. The oscilloscope automatically adjusts the display settings based on the number of channels turned on. For a single channel, it centers the zero-volt level and displays two to five vertical divisions. For multiple channels, it sets the zero-volt levels of Channels 1, 2, 3, and 4 to specific divisions and sizes the displays to minimize overlap. The SEC/DIV is set to a value that presents two to five cycles of the signal on the lowest-numbered channel. Triggering is set to Auto Level mode with specific settings for vertical source, level, coupling, and holdoff. If the input is a pulse with a width less than 5% of its period, the sweep is expanded to show the pulse itself.
The oscilloscopes can measure six waveform parameters: frequency, volts, rise time, fall time, pulse width, and time between events. To make a measurement, press the MEASURE button to display the Measure menu, select a measurement using the VERTICAL MODE buttons, and save the measurement. Automatic measurements require repetitive signals for reliable results.
The Save/Recall feature allows saving up to 30 different front-panel settings. Settings 1-8 are saved and recalled directly, while settings 9-30 use an extended process. To save a setup, present the desired display, press SAVE, and use the VERTICAL MODE buttons to save. To recall, press RECALL and select the setup using the VERTICAL MODE buttons or the A control.
The Configure menu allows changing internal parameters for various functions. Access it by pressing the MEASURE button, then VERTICAL MODE button 8 , and selecting the Configure menu with VERTICAL MODE button 5 (CONFIGURE).
The Probe Identification (ID) button on the P6137 probe helps identify the trace by moving it upward and displaying “ID”. Two quick presses of the ID button initiate an Auto Setup. If configured, it can also perform an automatic measurement via Auto Setup.
