Environmental considerations
This section provides information about the environmental impact of the Handyscope HS3.
Handyscope HS3 end-of-life handling
Production of the Handyscope HS3 required the extraction and use of natural resources. The equipment may contain substances that could be harmful to the environment or human health if improperly handled at the Handyscope HS3’s end of life.
In order to avoid release of such substances into the environment and to reduce the use of natural resources, recycle the Handyscope
HS3 in an appropriate system that will ensure that most of the materials are reused or recycled appropriately.
The symbol shown below indicates that the Handyscope HS3 complies with the European Union’s requirements according to Directive 2002/96/EC on waste electrical and electronic equipment
(WEEE).
Restriction of Hazardous Substances
The Handyscope HS3 has been classified as Monitoring and Control equipment, and is outside the scope of the 2002/95/EC RoHS
Directive.

Introduction
3
Before using the Handyscope HS3 first read chapter
about safety.
Many technicians investigate electrical signals.
Though the measurement may not be electrical, the physical variable is often converted to an electrical signal, with a special transducer.
Common transducers are accelerometers, pressure probes, current clamps and temperature probes. The advantages of converting the physical parameters to electrical signals are large, since many instruments for examining electrical signals are available.
The Handyscope HS3 is a portable two channel measuring instrument with Arbitrary Waveform Generator. The Handyscope
HS3 is available in several models with different maximum sampling frequencies: 5 MS/s, 10 MS/s, 25 MS/s, 50 MS/s or 100
MS/s. The native resolution is 12 bits, but user selectable resolutions of 8, 14 and 16 bits are available too, with adjusted maximum sampling frequency: resolution Maximum sampling frequency
8 bit 100 MS/s
12 bit 5, 10, 25 or 50 MS/s, depending on model
14 bit 3.125 MS/s
16 bit 195 kS/s
Table 3.1: Maximum sampling frequencies
With the accompanying software the Handyscope HS3 can be used as an oscilloscope, a spectrum analyzer, a true RMS voltmeter or a transient recorder. All instruments measure by sampling the input signals, digitizing the values, process them, save them and display them.
Introduction

3.1
Sampling
When sampling the input signal, samples are taken at fixed intervals. At these intervals, the size of the input signal is converted to a number. The accuracy of this number depends on the resolution of the instrument. The higher the resolution, the smaller the voltage steps in which the input range of the instrument is divided. The acquired numbers can be used for various purposes, e.g. to create a graph.
Figure 3.1: Sampling
The sine wave in figure
is sampled at the dot positions. By connecting the adjacent samples, the original signal can be reconstructed from the samples. You can see the result in figure
6
Chapter 3
Figure 3.2: ”connecting” the samples
3.2
Sample frequency
The rate at which the samples are taken is called the sampling frequency, the number of samples per second. A higher sampling frequency corresponds to a shorter interval between the samples.
As is visible in figure
, with a higher sampling frequency, the
original signal can be reconstructed much better from the measured samples.
Figure 3.3: The effect of the sampling frequency
The sampling frequency must be higher than 2 times the highest frequency in the input signal. This is called the Nyquist frequency. Theoretically it is possible to reconstruct the input signal with more than 2 samples per period. In practice, 10 to 20 samples per period are recommended to be able to examine the signal thoroughly.
3.2.1
Aliasing
When sampling an analog signal with a certain sampling frequency, signals appear in the output with frequencies equal to the sum and difference of the signal frequency and multiples of the sampling frequency. For example, when the sampling frequency is 1000 Hz and the signal frequency is 1250 Hz, the following signal frequencies will be present in the output data:
Introduction
7
Multiple of sampling frequency
...
-1000
0
1000
2000
...
1250 Hz signal -1250 Hz signal
-1000 + 1250 = 250
0 + 1250 = 1250
1000 + 1250 = 2250
2000 + 1250 = 3250
-1000 - 1250 = -2250
0 - 1250 = -1250
1000 - 1250 = -250
2000 - 1250 = 750
Table 3.2: Aliasing
As stated before, when sampling a signal, only frequencies lower than half the sampling frequency can be reconstructed. In this case the sampling frequency is 1000 Hz, so we can we only observe signals with a frequency ranging from 0 to 500 Hz. This means that from the resulting frequencies in the table, we can only see the 250 Hz signal in the sampled data. This signal is called an alias of the original signal.
If the sampling frequency is lower than twice the frequency of the input signal, aliasing will occur. The following illustration shows what happens.
Figure 3.4: Aliasing
In figure
, the green input signal (top) is a triangular signal
with a frequency of 1.25 kHz. The signal is sampled with a frequency of 1 kHz. The corresponding sampling interval is 1/1000Hz
8
Chapter 3
= 1ms. The positions at which the signal is sampled are depicted with the blue dots. The red dotted signal (bottom) is the result of the reconstruction. The period time of this triangular signal appears to be 4 ms, which corresponds to an apparent frequency
(alias) of 250 Hz (1.25 kHz - 1 kHz).
To avoid aliasing, always start measuring at the highest sampling frequency and lower the sampling frequency if required.
3.3
Digitizing
When digitizing the samples, the voltage at each sample time is converted to a number. This is done by comparing the voltage with a number of levels. The resulting number is the number corresponding to the level that is closest to the voltage. The number of levels is determined by the resolution, according to the following relation: LevelCount = 2
Resolution
.
The higher the resolution, the more levels are available and the more accurate the input signal can be reconstructed. In figure
, the same signal is digitized, using two different amounts of
levels: 16 (4-bit) and 64 (6-bit).
Figure 3.5: The effect of the resolution
The Handyscope HS3 measures at e.g. 12 bit resolution (2
12
=4096 levels). The smallest detectable voltage step depends on the input
Introduction
9
range. This voltage can be calculated as:
V oltageStep = F ullInputRange/LevelCount
For example, the 200 mV range ranges from -200 mV to +200 mV, therefore the full range is 400 mV. This results in a smallest detectable voltage step of 0.400V/4096 = 97.65 µV.
3.4
Signal coupling
The Handyscope HS3 has two different settings for the signal coupling: AC and DC. In the setting DC, the signal is directly coupled to the input circuit. All signal components available in the input signal will arrive at the input circuit and will be measured.
In the setting AC, a capacitor will be placed between the input connector and the input circuit. This capacitor will block all DC components of the input signal and let all AC components pass through. This can be used to remove a large DC component of the input signal, to be able to measure a small AC component at high resolution.
When measuring DC signals, make sure to set the signal coupling of the input to DC.
3.5
Probe compensation
The Handyscope HS3 is shipped with a probe for each input channel. These are 1x/10x selectable passive probes. This means that the input signal is passed through directly or 10 times attenuated.
When using an oscilloscope probe in 1:1 the setting, the bandwidth of the probe is only 6 MHz. The full bandwidth of the probe is only obtained in the 1:10 setting
The x10 attenuation is achieved by means of an attenuation network. This attenuation network has to be adjusted to the oscilloscope input circuitry, to guarantee frequency independency. This
10
Chapter 3
is called the low frequency compensation. Each time a probe is used on an other channel or an other oscilloscope, the probe must be adjusted.
Therefore the probe is equiped with a setscrew, with which the parallel capacity of the attenuation network can be altered. To adjust the probe, switch the probe to the x10 and attach the probe to a 1 kHz square wave signal. Then adjust the probe for a square front corner on the square wave displayed. See also the following illustrations.

Driver installation
4
Before connecting the Handyscope HS3 to the computer, the drivers need to be installed.
4.1
Introduction
To operate a Handyscope HS3, a driver is required to interface between the measurement software and the instrument. This driver takes care of the low level communication between the computer and the instrument, through USB. When the driver is not installed, or an old, no longer compatible version of the driver is installed, the software will not be able to operate the Handyscope HS3 properly or even detect it at all.
The installation of the USB driver is done in a few steps. Firstly, the driver has to be pre-installed by the driver setup program. This makes sure that all required files are located where Windows can find them. When the instrument is plugged in, Windows will detect new hardware and install the required drivers.
4.2
Where to find the driver setup
The driver setup program and measurement software can be found in the download section on TiePie engineering’s website and on the
CD-ROM that came with the instrument. It is recommended to install the latest version of the software and USB driver from the website. This will guarantee the latest features are included.
4.3
Executing the installation utility
To start the driver installation, execute the downloaded driver setup program, or the one on the CD-ROM that came with the instrument. The driver install utility can be used for a first time

installation of a driver on a system and also to update an existing driver.
The screen shots in this description may differ from the ones displayed on your computer, depending on the Windows version.
Figure 4.1: Driver install: step 1
When drivers were already installed, the install utility will remove them before installing the new driver. To remove the old driver successfully, it is essential that the Handyscope HS3 is disconnected from the computer prior to starting the driver install utility. When the Handyscope HS3 is used with an external power supply, this must be disconnected too.

Chapter 4
Figure 4.2: Driver install: step 2
When the instrument is still connected, the driver install utility will recognize it and report this. You will be asked to continue anyway.
Figure 4.3: Driver install: Instrument is still connected
Clicking ”No” will bring back the previous screen. The instrument should now be disconnected. Then the removal of the existing driver can be continued by clicking ”Next”.
Clicking ”Yes” will ignore the fact that the instrument is still connected and continue removal of the old driver. This option is not recommended, as removal may fail, after which installation of the new driver may fail as well.
When no existing driver was found or the existing driver is removed, the location for the pre-installation of the new driver can be selected.

Figure 4.4: Driver install: step 3
On Windows XP and newer, the installation may inform about the drivers not being ”Windows Logo Tested”. The driver is not causing any danger for your system and can be safely installed.
Please ignore this warning and continue the installation.
Figure 4.5: Driver install: step 4
The driver install utility now has enough information and can install the drivers. Clicking ”Install” will remove existing drivers and install the new driver. A remove entry for the new driver is added to the software applet in the Windows control panel.

Drivers have to be installed before the Handyscope HS3 is connected to the computer for the first time. See chapter
for more information.
5.1
Power the instrument
The Handyscope HS3 is powered by the USB, no external power supply is required. Only connect the Handyscope HS3 to a bus powered USB port, otherwise it may not get enough power to operate properly.
5.1.1
External power
In certain cases, it can be that the Handyscope HS3 cannot get enough power from the USB port.
When a Handyscope HS3 is connected to a USB port, the hardware will be powered, resulting in an inrush current, which is higher than the nominal current. After the inrush current, the current will stabilize at the nominal current.
USB ports have a maximum limit for both the inrush current peak and the nominal current. When either of them is exceeded, the USB port will be switched off. As a result, the connection to the Handyscope HS3 will be lost.
Most USB ports can supply enough current for the Handyscope
HS3 to work without an external power supply, but this is not always the case. Some (battery operated) portable computers or
(bus powered) USB hubs do not supply enough current. The exact value at which the power is switched off, varies per USB controller, so it is possible that the Handyscope HS3 functions properly on one computer, but does not on another.
In order to power the Handyscope HS3 externally, an external power input is provided for. It is located at the rear of the Handy-

scope HS3. Refer to paragraph
for specifications of the external power intput.
5.2
Connect the instrument to the computer
After the new driver has been pre-installed (see chapter
Handyscope HS3 can be connected to the computer. When the
Handyscope HS3 is connected to a USB port of the computer,
Windows will report new hardware. The Found New Hardware
Wizard will appear.
Depending on the Windows version, the New Hardware Wizard will show a number of screens in which it will ask for information regarding the drivers of the newly found hardware. The appearance of the dialogs will differ for each Windows version and might be different on the computer where the Handyscope HS3 is installed.
The driver consists of two parts which are installed separately.
Once the first part is installed, the installation of the second part will start automatically. Installation of the second part is identical to the first part, therefore they are not described individually here.
