Measurement Category
IEC61010-2-030 defines the measurement category to rate the ability of measuring instruments towithstand short-term transient overvoltage outside of the working voltage. This product and its
accessories can only be used in the environment of the nominal measurement category.
0-An instrument with no rated measurement category is used to measure circuits that are notdirectly connected to the mains, such as a circuit board powered by a battery or a secondary
circuit with special protection. This measurement category is also called CATⅠ.

CAT II：
For measurements installed in buildings, such as junction boxes, circuit breakers, distribution
boards and equipment permanently connected to fixed installations.



CAT III:
Used for measurements installed in buildings, such as junction boxes, circuit breakers,
distribution boards and equipment that are permanently connected to fixed installations.

CAT IV:
It is used for measuring at the source of low-voltage devices, such as electricity meters andprimary overcurrent protection devices.

Measurement Connection
The SHS800X and SHS1000X series handheld oscilloscope measurement accessories include
oscilloscope probes, multimeter probes, current adapters.

1. Oscilloscope probe
All oscilloscope probes should be properly compensated before their first use with the oscilloscope.
The following steps illustrate the proper probe compensation procedure.
1) Connect probe to the CH1 Input Terminal and the Compensation Signal Output Terminal on theright side panel.
2) Check the displayed waveforms and compare them with the following figure.

Trouble Shooting
The general failures and consequential solutions are listed below. When you find them, please deal
with them in the following corresponding ways. If the problem roves to be unsolvable, please contact
SIGLENT as soon as possible.
1.

The screen remains dark after power on:(1)

Check if the battery/adapter is correctly connected.

(2)

Check if the power switch is faulted.

(3)

Check whether the fuse is burned out. If the fuse needs to be changed, please contact
SIGLENT as soon as possible, return the instrument to the factory, and repair it by service
personnel authorized by SIGLENT.

2.

3.

(4)

Restart the instrument after completing inspections above.

(5)

If it still does not work normally, please contact SIGLENT.

After the signal is sampled, there is no corresponding waveform displaying:(1)

Check if the probe is correctly connected to the signal connecting cord.

(2)

Check if the signal connecting cord is correctly connected to BNC.

(3)

Check if the probe is correctly connected to the item under test.

(4)

Check if there are signal generated from the item under test.

(5)

Resample the signal.

The voltage amplitude measured is higher or lower than the actual value (the error usuallyoccurs in use of the probe):
Check if the attenuation coefficient of the current channel matches with the probe's attenuation
ratio.

4.

There is waveform displaying but not stable:(1)

Check the trigger source: check whether the "Source” in menu of "TRIG” is the actual
operating channel.

18

SHS800X/SHS1000X Quick Start

(2)Check if the waveform is wrong: it is easy to regard the wrong waveform as the real when ahigh frequency signal is connected to the instrument. You’d better make sure that the current
time base is correct.

(3)

Check the trigger type: "Edge" trigger suits to general signal and "Video” trigger suits to video
signal. Only in correct trigger type can the waveform stably display.

(4)

5.

Change the setting of trigger hold-off.

No display after pressing:

Check whether the trigger Mode is "Normal" or "Single", and if the trigger level exceeds thewaveform range. If yes, set the trigger level to the middle or change the trigger Mode to "Auto".
Note: press "Auto Setup” could automatically replace the above setting.

6.

The waveform displays like ladder:(1)

The horizontal time scale may be too low, you can increase it to improve the horizontal
resolution to make a good waveform displaying.

(2)

The lines between the sample points may also cause ladder-like displaying if the " Type ” inmenu of " DISPLAY " is "Vectors". Please turn the " Type " to " Dots " to solve the problem.

7.

USB storage can't be recognized:(1)

Check if the USB flash disk can work normally.

(2)

Check if the USB Device Host can work normally.

(3)

Make sure the USB disk being used is of flash type, the instrument does not support USB ofhardware type.

(4)

Restart the instrument and then insert the USB to check it.

(5)

If it is still in abnormal use, please contact with SIGLENT.

production and services of electronic test & measurement instruments.

SIGLENT first began developing digital oscilloscopes independently in 2002.
After more than a decade of continuous development, SIGLENT has extended
its product line to include digital
oscilloscopes,

function/arbitrary

oscilloscopes, isolated handheld

waveform

generators,

RF/MWsignalgenerators, spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, digital multimeters,
DC power supplies, electronic loads and other general purpose test
instrumentation. Since its first oscilloscope was launched in 2005, SIGLENT
has become the fastest growing manufacturer of digital oscilloscopes. We
firmly believe that today SIGLENT is the best value in electronic test &measurement.
