Rigol DS1102E not triggering correctly.

CharlieD:
Hello everyone.

I have a Rigol DS1102E wich I haven't use in a couple of months, I was working on a device and when measured the clock signal, te signal looks untriggered, so I put the probe in the compensation pin, the 1khz signal should look like stable and steady, but I looks untriggered.(See gif and pic below)





If anyone can help with this, I have no idea how the trigger section of this or any scope works, so any help explaining this is welcome, and a hint where or what section of the PCB to look .

Some other details:

-The measurements works fine.
-The knob varies the level and I put it between the signal in edge mode, but within ot not the signal there is no difference.

If any other detail is important please post it and I answer it. Thanks.

You can try factory resetting the scope. That would eliminate the potential factor of incorrect settings.

Try pushing the 'Auto' button.

Period jitter on the clock pulse  that you're trying to look at? Try a lower frequency timebase setting and look for repetitive patterns.

(When the scope grows up it wants to be an HP 😁)

AIUI the photos are of the waveform from the scope's probe cal output. Typically those are stable 1kHz.
