oscilloscope Help!
I have recently bought a used 465m tektronics oscilloscope.
I am looking for help on calibration and or advice on if its working or not, and if not how much to repair or is it worth it.
when I hook the probe up to the calibration signal in the front of the unit I get a standard digital wave form but it looks more sawtooth than square.
The adjuster on the probe itself allows me to adjust it a little but not enough to make it looke like a conventional square wave.
just to be sure the generator is working I have hooked it up to the parallel port of a computer when mach3 was running the spindle and the sawtooth pattern is still there if not more pronounced..
Is the scope out of calibration and if so is it a DIY fix or do I have to send it out. I only payed 100.00 U.S. for it and if its fixable at a resonable price I will get it fixed. but would like to DIY.
Any suggestions???
thanks
