Siglent SDG-2042x 10Mhz reference signal is bad

hi, I just bought a Siglent SDG-2042x , and use scope to check its 10mhz reference signal from its back. take a look at the photo. is it bad or normal? thanks.

Have you adjusted the compensation on the probes? That is typically what this reference is for...

looks very good. But you can't see it's jitter with such low resolution. Why you're think that it's bad?

Doesn't look anything like 10 mHz.  ;)

For comparison, SDG2042X NIB unit 10 MHz Ref Out > BNC cable > SDS1104X-E 1M input.




Into 50 Ohm termination before channel BNC




Now, this is a perfectly good reference clock not some square wave competition.

thanks for the answer. The reason I thought it was bad is because I expected it was a perfect sine wave. I remember I saw a youtube on SDG1032x, which was sending out perfect sine wave. It looks like this none sine wave waveform is correct for reference.
