The current probe might have some strange setting but it should have stopped jumping when i disconnected the probe?
Is this some known issue?
Yes only ch2 does it. Yes you are correct. Looking closely none of the channels bnc connectors are centered 100%.. What does this mean? But IF the bnc ground is somehow connectdet to the sensing it should be like the resistorconnection permanent. It should not sense when i'm connetcting the resistor. What the heck is going on with this scope?
I have contacted Batronix whom i bought the instrument from. I will send them this thread link also. I measured the voltage on channels 1 3 4 it was 3v3 as pointed put. On ch2 it is 1.33v. So yea something has gone bad. I guess some internal voltage ldo/reference is bad so it measures wrong level and cannot determine what has been connected.. Glad at least this happened with in warranty time.
So i checked it under microscope. Could not see anything whatsoever. I also cleaned it with a fine electronic brush to be sure. Started the scope and The damping did not jump around. Measured the voltage it was now 1.51Vdc. So i decided to leave it on for a while. After 15min, still no jumping but voltage was 1.43. After waiting 20 more min i went and checked it. It was now starting jumping but not so often. When i touch it with the multimeter probes it jumped a lot and voltage was now around 1.38V so i guess the threshold is maybe 1.4v or so. Now I give up. Something is not ok and need to be sent on repair. Thx guys for your help!
Feel shitty cuz this scope I actually the best I have tested in this price range.
