1.What does the vertical axis represent? The vertical axis represents the voltage scale. (how many volt or amp per division). 2.What does the horizontal axis represent? The Horizontal axis represents the Time scale. (the sweep speed). 3.Altering time physically changes the horizontal axis how? It will increase or decrease each division to the choosing time which will change the horizontal axis per screen. 4. When using an amp clamp, what type of reading (volts, amps, ohms) appears on the vertical axis? Explain the basic process the scope uses to obtain this type of reading. With an amp clamp amps appear on the vertical axis. The scope obtains this type of reading from the magnitude of AC and additionally the phase and waveform can also be …show more content…

What feature may be utilized to see specific detail of an event and may also be useful for observing intermittent issues? The reduced rearm delay which is provided by digital triggering, together with segmented memory allows the capture of events that happen in rapid sequence. Rapid triggering can capture a new waveform every microsecond until the buffer is full. 6. A repeat trigger is being used to read a pattern. After the trigger is moved on the screen, the pattern disappears. What is the most likely problem? The most likely problem for the reason the info (pattern) disappears is that your readings are out of parameters that you have set it to. 7. What is the advantage of using the repeat mode for a trigger vs. the automatic mode? The advantage of using Auto mode is that when you’re looking at your wavelength and readings, they are consistent. If at any time the readings go out of parameters it will still display the readings. If this was to happen in Repeat mode… where your readings go out of parameters the data would simply not be there it would be a blank reading on the screen. 8. What is the term used to describe number of frames recorded. The term used to describe the 1-1000 frames recorded is called a your Complete Record. 9. A high sample rate does what to the
