Newbie: Confused over calibration

Post by hvanschaick » Wed Jun 08, 2016 10:23 am

Hi, I am a newbie on oscilloscopes and want to use the pitaya for logging of some measurements.
Before I go further I think need to calibrate the input.

How does one connect the wires to do that? Probably obvious for most, but not for me... :?

The procedure refers to LV with 1V for the calibration.. Where do I find that??

Hi,
for the calibration procedure you need an external 1V voltage source. There is no reference source on the Red Pitaya itself.

You connect your oscilloscope probe to the input you are going to calibrate. For the DC offset calibration, you just short-circuit the probe (clamp the ground clamp on the probe tip). For the gain calibration, you connect the probe to a 1V reference (tip on plus, ground clamp on minus).
