Firstly, you plug the electrical signal you\u2019d like to view into one of the oscilloscope\u2019s inputs of which there are typically two, labeled A and B.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>                     Noted: when you first switch on the oscilloscope, the signal won\u2019t be visible until you adjust two settings: volts\/division and time\/division (or timebase).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Secondly, when measuring the vertical scale, the volts\/division determines the number of volts for each vertical division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. The time\/division controls the horizontal scale. The amount of time each horizontal division shows is commensurately changed when you adjust the time\/division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Adjust these two settings until the signal is clearly displayed on the oscilloscope\u2019s screen.

You\u2019ll measure the signal\u2019s amplitude by counting the number of vertical divisions between the signal\u2019s highest and lowest points (i.e. its peak and trough).
