Comprehensive Signal AnalysisWith a sweep time base ranging from 0.2 s/div to 0.5 s/div and vertical deflection from 5 mV/div to 20 V/div, the OS-5030 allows for detailed and precise signal analysis. The CRT display supports clear visualization, while features like X-Y operation expand its analytical capability.
Reliable and Safe OperationCertified under IS standards, the Metravi OS-5030 ensures user safety and high operational reliability. The oscilloscope maintains consistent performance in environments up to 85% humidity and temperatures between 0C and 40C, making it suitable for a wide range of working conditions.
FAQ's of Metravi OS-5030 Dual Channel Oscilloscope:
Q: How do I use the Metravi OS-5030 for basic signal testing?
A: To use the OS-5030 for signal testing, connect your signal source to one of the BNC input channels (CH1 or CH2), select your preferred vertical and time base settings, and adjust the trigger mode based on the nature of your signal. The CRT display will visualize the waveform, allowing for adjustment and detailed observation.
Q: What types of signals can the OS-5030 oscilloscope measure?
A: The OS-5030 can measure a range of electrical signals with input voltages up to 400V (DC + AC peak, at 1 kHz), vertical sensitivities from 5 mV/div to 20 V/div, and bandwidths up to 30 MHz, making it suitable for most laboratory, educational, and service testing applications.
Q: When should I use alternate or chop mode on the oscilloscope?
A: Use alternate mode for viewing two signals of similar frequency simultaneously, as it switches between channels every scan. Chop mode is ideal for comparing low-frequency signals, as it rapidly switches between channels within a single sweep, presenting both waveforms together for easier comparison.
Q: Where can I safely operate the Metravi OS-5030?
A: You can operate the OS-5030 in laboratory, educational, or service environments with an AC 220V 10% power supply, temperatures ranging from 0C to 40C, and humidity up to 85% RH (non-condensing). Ensure the oscilloscope is placed on a stable bench-top and away from excessive moisture or heat sources.
Q: What is the benefit of the oscilloscope's X-Y operation mode?
A: The X-Y operation allows the oscilloscope to plot one input signal against another, rather than time, which is useful for analyzing phase relationships and creating Lissajous patterns. This feature enhances its utility in advanced signal analysis and troubleshooting complex circuits.
Q: How does the trigger system enhance signal analysis?
A: The trigger system, with modes including auto, normal, TV frame, and TV line, as well as multiple trigger sources, ensures stable and consistent waveform display. This allows the user to effectively lock onto repetitive signals or capture transient events for in-depth analysis.
