2

OWON HDS Series Handheld DSO & DMM 2-Safety Information

applications to prevent any possible dangers.

Warning:

To avoid fire or electrical shock, please use proper power adapter. Use only the power

adapter appointed by the manufacturer and subject to approval of being used in the user’s

country.

Warning:

The two channels of the oscilloscope are non-isolated electrically. The channels should adopt

common basis during measuring. To prevent short circuits, the 2 probe ground must not be

connected to 2 different non-isolated DC level.

Warning:

The channels should adopt common basis during measuring. To prevent short circuits, the 2

probe ground must not be connected to 2 different non-isolated DC level. The diagram of the

oscilloscope ground wire connection:

It is not allowed to measure AC power when charging the oscilloscope with adapter.

Warning:

To avoid fire or electrical shock if a test tool input is connected to more 42V peak (30Vrms)

or on circuits of more than 4800VA:

● Use only insulated voltage probes, test leads and adapter supplied with the test tool, or

indicated by OWON as suitable for the Oscilloscope & Multimeter.

● Before use, inspect voltage probes, test leads and accessories for mechanical damage and

replace when damaged.

● Remove all probes, test leads and accessories that are not in use.

● Always connect the power adapter first to the AC outlet before connecting it to the

Oscilloscope & Multimeter.

● Do not apply voltages that differ more than 400 V from earth ground to any input when

measuring in a CAT Ⅱ environment.

● Do not apply voltages that differ more than 400 V from each other to the isolated inputs

when measuring in a CAT Ⅱ environment.

● Do not apply input voltages above the rating of the instrument Use caution when using

1:1 test leads because the probe tip voltage will be directly transmitted to the

Oscilloscope & Multimeter.

4.1 Performing the General Inspection

When you have got a new HDS series oscilloscope, it is suggested that you should perform a

general inspection on the instrument according to the following steps.

4.1.1 Check whether there is any Damage on it Due to Transportation

If the packing boxes or foam cushions are found in serous damage, keep them in a proper place till

the complete instrument and accessories have passed the electrical and mechanical tests.

4.1.2 Make a Check on Accessories

The accessory list has been described in the picture of Digital Oscilloscope Parts of this manual.

You can make a check and find whether there is any accessory loss with reference to the

Appendix. In case of any accessory loss or damage, consult the OWON dealer responsible for

such a business or the local office of OWON.

4.1.3 Make a Check on the Complete Instrument

If the instrument is damaged in its appearance or it fails in normal operation or performance test,

consult the OWON dealer responsible for such a business or the local office of OWON. If the

instrument is damaged due to transportation, keep the packing in a proper place and consult the

transportation department and the OWON dealer responsible for such business, who will provide

an instrument replacement or maintenance.

18. OSC OPTION operation prompt: There are different prompts for different OSC OPTION

operations.

19. The red pointer gives the grounding datum point of the waveform on CH1, which is the zero

position of CH1. No display of this pointer indicates that the channel has not been opened.

20. Waveform display area. Red waveform represent CH1, blue waveform represent CH2.
