4.1 Isi njikwa na interface

The DHO814 features a 7-inch HD touchscreen for intuitive navigation and control. Physical knobs and buttons are also provided for quick adjustments of vertical scale, horizontal time base, trigger level, and other common functions.

4.2 Waveform Acquisition

To acquire a waveform:

1. Connect your signal source to an input channel using a probe.
2. Adjust the vertical scale (Volts/Div) and horizontal time base (Sec/Div) using the dedicated knobs or touchscreen controls to display the waveform appropriately.
3. Set the trigger mode and level to stabilize the waveform. Use the 'Auto' button for automatic trigger setup or manually adjust the trigger level.
4. The 12-bit vertical resolution provides 16 times more detail than traditional 8-bit oscilloscopes, allowing for precise capture of subtle signal variations.

This visual illustrates the superior detail provided by the DHO814's 12-bit vertical resolution compared to standard 8-bit oscilloscopes, allowing for more precise capture of subtle signal variations.

4.3 Ọrụ Nha

The DHO814 integrates several measurement tools:

• Nleta akpaaka: Access a wide range of automatic measurements for parameters like frequency, period, peak-to-peak voltage, RMS, wdg.
• Digital Multimeter (DMM): A built-in 3-digit DMM for basic voltage na nha ugbu a.
• Ọnụ ọgụgụ ugboro: Provides accurate frequency readings.
• Nyocha FFT: Perform Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to analyze the frequency components of your signals.

4.4 Protocol Decoding

The oscilloscope supports decoding of various serial protocols, including RS232/UART, I2C, SPI, and CAN. This feature is particularly useful for debugging embedded systems and automotive applications.

4.5 Connectivity and Remote Control
