To Prepare the Oscilloscope for Use
To Remove the Front Panel Cover
Before using the oscilloscope, remove the front panel cover. Grasp the
transverse tabs on each side and pull them outward to remove the cover.
Figure 4 To Remove the Front Panel Cover
To Connect to Power Supply
This oscilloscope supports two kinds of AC input power supplies: 100 V-127 V,
45 Hz-440 Hz; 100 V-240 V, 45 Hz-65 Hz. Please use the power cord supplied
with the accessories to connect the oscilloscope to the AC power source, as
shown in the figure below. After you turn on the power switch, the oscilloscope
is connected to power, and the Power key located at the lower left corner
of the front panel is blinking.

Power-on Inspection
When the oscilloscope is connected to power, press the Power key at the
lower left corner of the front panel to start the oscilloscope. During the start-up
process, the oscilloscope performs a series of self-tests. You can hear the
switching sound of the relay. After the self-test, the welcome screen is
displayed. The "Current Options" dialog box will be displayed if your instrument
currently has installed the trial versions of the options. From this dialog box,
you can view the name, version, and the remaining trial time of the option
currently installed. The instrument will be installed with the trial versions of the
options before leaving factory. Its remaining trial time is about 2,000 minutes.
You can press Utility System SelfTestInfo to view the self-test results.
To Connect the Probe
RIGOL provides passive and active probes for DS4000E. For detailed
information of the probes, please refer to the User’s Guide of the corresponding
probe. The following table lists the recommended probes for this oscilloscope.
Model Description
PVP2350
350 MHz, passive probe, standard, auto detection
RP7150
1.5 GHz, active probe, optional, auto detection
Besides, DS4000E supports Tektronix probes with TekProbe II BNC Interface
(required to be used with the option - RIGOL T2R1000 interface adapter).
To Connect the Passive Probe
1. Connect the BNC terminal of the probe to an analog channel input
terminal or the external trigger input connector on the front panel of the
oscilloscope.
2. Connect the ground alligator clip or spring of the probe to the circuit
ground terminal and connect the probe tip to the circuit point to be tested.
After connecting the passive probe, you need to perform probe function
inspection and probe compensation adjustment before making measurements.
For detailed procedures, refer to "Function Inspection for the Passive
Probe" and "Probe Compensation".

DS4000E Quick Guide 13
English
To Connect the Active Probe
Take RP7150 (using the differential probe front) as an example.
1. Connect the probe head to the active probe amplifier.
2. Connect the other end of the active probe amplifier to the analog channel
input terminal or the external trigger input connector on the front panel of
the oscilloscope. Note that you need to push the probe straight on until it
latches into place.
Figure 6 To Connect the Active Probe
3. Use the probing aids to connect the probe head to the circuit under test.
After connecting the active probe, you can perform probe calibration and offset
voltage adjustment if necessary. For detailed procedures, refer to the User's
Guide of this instrument.
RIGOL
14 DS4000E Quick Guide
English
To Connect the Tektronix Probe
1. Connect the Tektronix probe to one end of T2R1000 adapter properly.
2. Connect the other end of T2R1000 adapter to the analog channel input
terminal or the external trigger input connector on the front panel of the
oscilloscope.
3. Connect the ground terminal of the probe to the circuit ground terminal,
and connect the probe tip to the test point of the circuit.
For the specified model of the Tektronix probe, after connecting the probe, you
can perform probe calibration and offset voltage adjustment if necessary. For
detailed procedures, refer to the User's Guide of this instrument.
Function Inspection for the Passive Probe
You need to perform probe function inspection according to the steps below
before making measurements with the passive probe.
1. Press Default OK to restore the oscilloscope to factory settings.
2. Connect the ground alligator clip of the probe to the "Ground Terminal" as
shown in Figure 7 below.
3. Connect one end of the probe to CH1 input terminal of the oscilloscope,
and connect the other end to the "Probe Compensation Signal Output
Terminal" as shown in Figure 7.

Figure 7 To Use the Compensation Signal
4. Set the attenuation on the probe to 10X. Then press AUTO.
5. Observe the waveform on the screen. In normal conditions, the square
waveform is displayed, as shown in the figure below. If the square
waveform actually shown does not match that in the figure below, please
follow the procedures for "Probe Compensation" in the next section.
Figure 8 Probe Compensation Signal (Square Waveform)
6. Use the same method to inspect other analog channels.
WARNING
To avoid electric shock, please ensure that the insulated wire of
the probe is in good condition, and do not touch the metallic part
of the probe when the probe is connected to high voltage source.
Tip
The probe compensation signal can only be used for probe compensation
adjustment and cannot be used for calibration.

Probe Compensation
When the probe is used for the first time or when the probe compensation
signal does not match that shown in Figure 8, you should compensate the
probe to match the input channel of the oscilloscope. The non-compensated or
poorly compensated probe may cause measurement errors.
The procedures for the probe compensation are as follows:
1. Perform Step 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the above section.
2. Check the waveform displayed on the screen of the oscilloscope and
compare it with the waveforms shown in the figure below.
Figure 9 Probe Compensation
3. Use a nonmetallic screwdriver to adjust the low-frequency compensation
adjustment hole on the probe until the waveform is displayed as "Properly
Compensated" in the figure above.
To Use the Built-in Help System
The help system of this oscilloscope provides instructions for all the function
keys and menu softkeys on the front panel. Press Help to open the help
interface, and press it again to close the interface. The help interface consists of
two sections. The left section is "Help Options", and you can select the "Button"
or "Index" tab. The right section is "Help Display Area", which displays the help
information.
