Frequently Asked Questions - ScopiX IV OX 9304 METRIX

How to charge the oscilloscope battery?

Before first use, fully charge the battery. Plug the PA40W-2 power adapter into the 4-point connector on the back of the instrument. Charging occurs between 0 and 45°C. The charger LED is orange during charging and green when complete. Charging time is approximately 5 hours.

How to use the Autoset function?

Press the 'Magic Wand' (Autoset) key on the keypad. The instrument automatically sets coupling, vertical sensitivity, time base, slope, and trigger for channels where a signal is present. The lowest frequency signal is used as the trigger source. If no signal is detected, Autoset is aborted.

What is the Probix system?

Probix is a system of smart probes and sensors that are automatically recognized upon connection. It provides safety information (max voltage, category) and automatically sets the scale, unit, and channel color. Standard BNC or banana accessories can be used via the included adapter.

How to perform a voltage measurement with the built-in multimeter?

Press the HOME key then select Multimeter mode. Select the desired channel (CH1 to CH4) and coupling (AC, DC, or AC+DC). Use the VERTICAL keys to adjust sensitivity. The measurement displays on screen with the corresponding unit. You can manually change the range with the AUTO/manual key.

How to analyze harmonics of a signal?

From the home screen, select Harmonic mode. Choose the channel to analyze (CHx). The instrument displays a histogram of the first 63 harmonic orders. The fundamental frequency is automatically detected (40-450 Hz). You can view THD, RMS value, and phase of each harmonic. Results are displayed as filled (consumed) and empty (generated) histograms.

How to connect and use the probes?

Probix probes connect directly to the Probix connector on the front panel. They are automatically recognized and a safety message appears. For standard BNC probes, use the included banana adapter. Always connect the probe to the instrument before connecting to the measurement point, and disconnect from the measurement point before removing from the instrument.

How to save a screenshot?

Press the 'Screenshot' key on the keypad. The capture is saved to the 'Screenshots' folder in internal memory or on the microSD card if present. The file is named in the format SCOPIX_date_hour-minute-second.png.

How to update the firmware?

Firmware update is done via the communication interface. Download the update file from the support site and copy it to a microSD card. Insert the card into the instrument, then from the home screen go to system settings (gear icon) and select 'Firmware Update'. Follow the on-screen instructions.

What is the difference between trigger modes?

The modes are: Mono (single shot): one acquisition per press of RUN HOLD. Triggered (Trig'd): the screen refreshes only on a trigger event. Automatic (Auto): the screen refreshes even without a trigger. ROLL mode is automatic for time bases > 100 ms. Use the TRIGGER key to select the mode.

How to clean the instrument?

Disconnect all cables and power before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth (no solvents or abrasives). For the battery access door, follow the instructions in the manual. Do not immerse the instrument. Use only recommended accessories.

11.3. IEEE 488.2 common commands

Introduction

The common commands are defined by the IEEE 488.2 standard. They are operational on all instruments which are specified IEEE 488.2. They command basic functions such as: identification,

reset,

configuration reading,

reading of event and status register,

reset of event and status register.

If a command containing one or several directories has been received, and if a common command has been stacked up, then the instrument stays in this directory and execute normally the commands.
