For your scope there should be a big knob just to the right of the screen. Just above the knob it will be marked A and B, Time/Div, and Delay Time. You should have a clear skirt on the knob with two black lines radiating from the center. The value (number) that is between those two black marks is the current time per division. setting of the timebase. I suggested 5 ms only because there were three dark lines in the trace, and at that time base setting that would be just enough time for approximately three cycles of 60 Hz across the screen.

stop and the trigger led lights. Would this be a sign that it's AC line hum? If so, would power supply caps be the likely cause? --- In TekScopes@..., glydeck@... wrote:
