| mike zias:
I have a 7623A scope and trying to use the vertical signal output on the back panel in the fashion of using the old 1A1 preamp. I find the output is attenuated - dividing the input on the vertical plug in by 2. Is that normal? I have seen a spec for another scope as 0.5 v per division with 1 meg load.. I don't understand that spec.What division are they referencing? How does that account for the 2:1 division? |

Where the vertical signal out is picked off the voltage swing has been normalised to suit the deflection inputs sensitivity of the CRT amplifier. So the signal levels here are a fixed range relating the the full scale CRT deflection range |

The vertical output should be 25 millivolts into division into 50 ohms and 0.5 volts per division into 1 megohm. The divisions are vertical divisions shown on the CRT graticule. |
