I have a Picotech 3206D USB oscilloscope and the DC voltage is off by a little bit. Does anyone know how to calibrate this o-scope? The DC average voltage with no probe connected is about 460uV. Maybe that is not so bad, but when the voltage auto adjusts to 20mV, seeing it hover above 0 is annoying. I can do a math channel to subtract a half millivolt, but I'd like to know if there is a way to adjust it without using a math channel. Thanks! |

Assuming you are using PicoScope 7 then just (with no input signal) click on the "Zero channel offsets" button |

I am using PicoScope version 6.14.61.6219. When I click check for updates, it says there are no updates (I am running windows 7 if that matters). Thanks! |

I am downloading PicoScope 7 now. Edit: I realized in PS6 there is a DC offset option under analog options right there in the probe properties tab, been looking right at it for years.. That is all I needed. Thank you for pointing out 7 to me, I would have never knew about it as I usually leave it up to the software to find updates. That looks interesting! Edit2: I like that way better than PS6! It almost makes me feel like I just bought a new o-scope :) |

Is Picoscope 7 still complete shit (but with a "pretty" -not- skin)? There is the AutoZero in Pico 6 as well, it's in the channel settings somewhere, but it leaves that annoying offset always on. Sometimes i get offsets, but then i check my grounding scheme and zero returns being zero |
