below before using the MSO5000HD series oscilloscope for the first
time.
2. Before Use
To perform a quick verification of the instrument’s normal
operations, please follow the steps below:
2.1 Connecting to the Power Supply
Frequency: 50 Hz/60 Hz or 400 Hz
2.2 Boot Check
Press the power soft switch key and ensure the indicator changes
from red to green. The oscilloscope will show a boot animation and
then enter the normal interface.
2.3 Connecting Probe
This oscilloscope provides 2 pieces of compensating signal
probe. Connect the BNC of the probe to the BNC of oscilloscope’s C1

This chapter is to introduce on using the oscilloscope for the first time, the front and rear panels, the user interface, as well as touch screen function.
2.1. General Inspection
It is recommended to inspect the instrument follow the steps below before using the MSO5000HD series oscilloscope for the first time. (1) Check for Damages caused by Transport
If the packaging carton or the foam plastic cushions are severely damaged, please contact the UNI-T distributor of this product immediately. (2) Check Accessories The details of the supplied accessories are described in the MSO5000HD Series High-Definition Oscilloscopes accessories section in this manual. Please refer to this section for the list of accessories. If any accessories are missing or damaged, contact UNI-T or the local distributors of this product. (3) Machine Inspection If the instrument appears to be damaged, not working properly, or has failed the functionality test, please contact UNI-T or local distributors of this product. If the equipment is damaged due to shipping, please keep the packaging and notify both the transportation department and UNI-T distributors, UNI-T will arrange maintenance or replacement.
2.2.Before Use

(4) Function Check Press the AUTO key, a square wave (amplitude 3 Vpp, frequency 1 kHz) should appear on the screen. Repeat step 3 to check all channels. If the square waveform display does not match the one shown above, please follow the ‘Probe Compensation’ procedure described in the next section.
(5) Probe Compensation When the probe is connected to any input channel for the first time, this step might be adjusted to match the probe and the input channel. Probes that are not compensated may lead to measurement errors or mistakes. Please follow the following steps to adjust the probe compensation. Set the probe attenuation ratio in the probe menu to 10x. Connect the oscilloscope probe to C1. If using the probe’s hook tip, ensure it makes stable contact. Connecting the probe to the “Probe Compensation Signal Connection Clip” of the oscilloscope and connect the ground alligator clip to the ground terminal of probe compensating signal connection clip. Open C1 and press the Autoset key.

5. Remote Control
MSO5000HD Series
MSO5000HD series mixed signal oscilloscopes can communicate with a PC via USB and LAN port for remote control. Remote control is implemented using SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments). MSO5000HD series has three methods for remote control. (1) Custom Programming
The user can perform the programming control on the oscilloscope through SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments). For detailed descriptions on command and programming, please refer to MSO5000HD Series Mixed Signal Oscilloscope-Programming Manual. (2) PC Software Control (Instrument manager) The user can use a PC software to remotely control the oscilloscope. The instrument manager can display the oscilloscope screen in real time and control the operation with the mouse. It is recommended to use the PC software provided by UNI-T. It can be downloaded from UNI-T official website (https://www.uni-trend.com). Operating steps: Setup the communication between the instrument and a PC Open the instrument manager software and search the instrument source Right-click to open the oscilloscope, operate the instrument manager to remotely control
the oscilloscope (refer to Instrument Manager-User’s Manual for more details) (3) Web Control
Once the network is connected, users can access a web page via the IP address. After logging in with the username and password, they can control the device. The Web Control feature displays the instrument’s screen interface in real-time. It supports web access from PCs, smartphones, and iPads, and allows for both internal and external remote control of the device.

6. Troubleshooting
MSO5000HD Series
(1) If the oscilloscope remains on a black screen without any display when pressing the power soft key. a. Check if the power plug is properly connected and the power supply is normal. b. Check if the power switch is turned on. If the power switch is turned on, the power soft key on the front panel should be green. When the power soft key is enabled, the power soft key should be blue, and the oscilloscope will make an active sound. There should be a normal relay rattle when the soft switch key is pressed. c. If the relay has sound, it indicates that the oscilloscope is normal boot-up. Press the Default key and press the “Yes” key, if the oscilloscope returns to normal, indicating that the backlight brightness is set too low. d. Restart the oscilloscope after completing the above steps. e. If the product still does not work properly, contact the UNI-T Service Center for assistance.
(2) After signal acquisition, the waveform of the signal does not appear on the screen. a. Check whether probe and DUT are connected properly. b. Check whether the signal output channel is open. c. Check whether the signal connecting line is connected to analog channel. d. Check whether the signal source has DC offset. e. Plug out the connected signal, to check whether the base line is within the screen range (If not, please perform self-calibration). f. If the product still does not work properly, contact the UNI-T Service Center for assistance.
(3) The measured voltage amplitude value is 10 times larger or 10 times smaller than the actual value. Check whether the channel probe attenuation ratio settings are consistent with the used probe attenuation rate.
(4) There is a waveform display but not stable. a. Check the trigger settings in trigger menu whether is consistent with the actual signal input channel. b. Check the trigger type: the general signals should use “Edge” trigger. The waveform can only be displayed stably if the trigger mode is set correctly. c. Try to change trigger coupling to HF rejection or LF rejection, to filter out the high-frequency or low-frequency noise that interfere the trigger.
(5) No waveform display after pressing the Run/Stop key.

Quick Start Guide
MSO5000HD Series
a. Check whether the trigger mode is set to “Normal” or “Single” and verify if the trigger level exceeds the waveform range.
b. If the trigger mode is normal or single and the trigger level is in the center, set the trigger mode to AUTO.
c. Press the Autoset key to automatically complete the above settings. (6) Waveform refresh is very slow.
a. Check whether the acquisition method is set to “Average” and if the average times are large.
b. Check whether the memory depth is maximum. c. Check whether the trigger holdoff is large. d. Check whether it is normal trigger and is slow time base. e. All the above will lead to slow waveform refresh, it is recommended to restore the factory
settings, then the waveform can be refreshed normally.
