Adjustment
This section contains information you need to adjust the TDS 310, TDS 320,
and TDS 350. There are only three types of adjustments you can perform on
the oscilloscope: the automated and semiautomated adjustments in the
system calibration menu, attenuator adjustments, and monitor adjustments.
You should perform the signal path compensation adjustment after servicing
your instrument or moving your instrument to anew operating environment
(±5_ C temperature change). The other adjustment procedures may be
necessary if the instrument fails one of the Performance Tests in the previous
section.
You should allow the instrument a 20 minute warmup period before perform
ing any adjustments.
Adjustment Interval
These adjustments should be done once a year.
