Re: 2247A occasional horizontal jitter
I will check tomorrow. Assume you ask if the jitter would stop in NORM trig mode? Or should I do the whole sine/square ch1/ch2 alternate testing as before once again?

Re: 2247A occasional horizontal jitter
If I understood correctly, given the suggestion that the horizontal jitter may be related to the DC power fed to the sweep circuit electronics, I am thinking that tracing the corresponding DC power

Unfortunately the server where the video was uploaded is temporarily down due to a fire at the datacenter on a UPS. I am hoping it will be back online later tomorrow.

Re: 2247A occasional horizontal jitter
Wow, you really must be an expert, looking at the authority of your above response, and a polite one as well. Good luck finding the power problem that makes the horizontal PLL (?!) lose its lock.

Lighten up dude. What supreme race do you claim to be from ? I do not happen to agree with your smart ass statement of "Most definitely a trigger level (jump) issue....." make any sense to you?¡±

Re: 2247A occasional horizontal jitter
I could be wrong, and very frequently I am. But it seems to me that the lowest common denominator would be power. I would suspect that sweep circuit electronics are getting a zap occasionally by a

Re: 2247A occasional horizontal jitter
Most definitely a trigger level (jump) issue. With a sine wave, the trigger level influences the phase angle where the trace starts, with a square wave, any trigger level between the peak levels

Does it show the same behavior if you select "NORM" mode for trigger? Ozan

Just in case this might be additional useful information: Ch1 input a square wave, ch2 a sine wave. Both at same frequency and amplitude. No jitter shown while trigger source is set to Ch1 (square

Re: 2247A occasional horizontal jitter
Thanks for your response Dave. At the time I was looking at some audio frequencies between 30Hz to 16Khz, sine wave, AC input coupling. The jitter seems to occur regardless of the sweep speed or input
