Welcome back to our comprehensive guide on the ZOYI ZT-703S, the versatile handheld oscilloscope multimeter that combines the functionality of an oscilloscope, signal generator, and multimeter into one compact device. In our previous blog, we explored the Display Interface, Symbols, and Operating Modes of the ZT-703S. Today, we’ll dive deeper into the MENU Interface, a critical component that allows users to access and configure a wide range of settings and functions. 
Page 1: Channel Settings This page allows you to configure the channels (CH1 and CH2) for your oscilloscope measurements. You can enable or disable channels, set coupling modes (DC or AC), and adjust probe attenuation (X1 or X10). This is particularly useful when you need to match the probe settings with the oscilloscope for accurate readings. 
Page 2: Trigger Setup The trigger system is crucial for capturing stable waveforms. On this page, you can set the trigger mode (Auto, Normal, or Single), select the trigger edge (rising or falling), and choose the trigger source (CH1 or CH2). These settings help you capture specific waveform events with precision. 
Page 3: Auxiliary Functions This page includes essential utilities such as Baseline Calibration, Language Settings, and Restore Settings. Baseline calibration ensures accurate measurements by compensating for any environmental factors that may affect the device. You can also switch between Simplified Chinese and English for the interface language. 
Page 4: Auxiliary Functions Here, you’ll find advanced settings like Auto Shutdown, Backlight Brightness, and Run Mode (Normal or High-Speed). The High-Speed mode is particularly useful for measuring signals above 30MHz, offering a higher sampling rate of 280MSa/s. 
Page 5: Extended Functions The XY Display Mode allows you to visualize the relationship between two signals, creating Lissajous patterns. This is useful for analyzing phase differences and frequency ratios. Additionally, you can adjust the Persistence Time to control how long waveforms remain on the screen, ranging from 500ms to infinite. 
Page 6: Extended Functions The ZT-703S isn’t just a measurement tool; it’s also a signal generator. On this page, you can configure the output waveform (sine, square, triangle, etc.), set the frequency, and adjust the amplitude and duty cycle. This feature is invaluable for testing and troubleshooting circuits. 
Understanding the MENU Interface
The MENU interface on the ZT-703S is your gateway to customizing and optimizing the device for various measurement scenarios. By pressing the MENU key, you can access a multi-page menu system that organizes settings into logical categories. This intuitive design ensures that even complex configurations are straightforward and user-friendly.Navigating the MENU Pages
The MENU interface is divided into several pages, each dedicated to specific functions and settings. Here’s a breakdown of what you’ll find on each page: Page 1: Channel Settings This page allows you to configure the channels (CH1 and CH2) for your oscilloscope measurements. You can enable or disable channels, set coupling modes (DC or AC), and adjust probe attenuation (X1 or X10). This is particularly useful when you need to match the probe settings with the oscilloscope for accurate readings. Page 2: Trigger Setup The trigger system is crucial for capturing stable waveforms.

-
- Quick Access to Frequently Used Settings: If you frequently adjust certain settings, such as trigger modes or channel configurations, you can quickly navigate to the relevant menu page using the arrow keys. This saves time and streamlines your workflow.
-
- Auto Setup for Beginners: If you’re new to oscilloscopes or unsure about the optimal settings, the AUTO key can automatically configure the device to display the waveform correctly. This is a great starting point before making manual adjustments.
-
- Saving and Reviewing Waveforms: The ZT-703S allows you to save measurement waveforms for later analysis. Simply press and hold the HOLD/SAVE key to save the current waveform. You can then review saved waveforms in the MENU interface or transfer them to a computer for further analysis.
