NICE! Even tho the tool isn’t updatable, you can use the scope to its fullest! You’ll enjoy the MODIS scope, was my second scope after the MT2400 back in the day.
Hello. Thanks for helping out on how to work the scope. I just got an older 2 channel one possible one of the first ones and m trying to learn it. Is there a way to damage the scope by using the wrong setting or Pocking the wrong wire????? Thanks My scope: no. 3820 SPX OTC Perception
Welcome to the club! Scopes are a tool we need to learn and master as cars keep getting more high tech and faster signals that only a scope can see. Yes you can damage scope, how, if you measure a voltage higher than the rating for the channel. For example if the scope channel is max at 30v and you test an ignition coil, if the coil spikes over 30v it can damage the scope. Make sure you know the input voltage max for the channel, if it’s too low use an attenuator to safely be able to test that voltage.
I wanna play around with it and it is brand new but, has been sitting in toolbox for at least 2 years. I'm just afraid of frying it. That's why it sits. Need an over-all rule of always what to do so I don't fry it. Don't need it explained why it will fry it....just what to always make sure is hooked up so I don't fry it.
I live for n Florida near fort Mayers how can I be more engaged with using lab scope and and also if you have any online classes I’m tired of being a mechanic I want to be technician.
question for you sir, i was using my snapon labscope one day looking at the pwm solenoids on a mazda fnr5 transmission and i notice some times the wave form pattern would go from 14v to a neg 14v pattern what am i missing here, thankyou

Best school ever, thank you.
Very cool. Practicing on known good vehicles helps you spot the bad ones.
I have a vantage pro am still trying to use it it’s really fascinating skill in the automotive world
This is one of the best presentations on the subject anywhere. I’m learning lots of new things here !! Thanks mate !!!
The best one video oscar. Old student
Most scopes have 10 horizontal lines, or divisions for the vertical scale. Vertical and
horizontal divisions are called “graticules”.
I apologize for that’s error, I meant graticules, we just decided to launch video. That was my fault. Thanks for watching
@@MasterAutomotiveTraining -- No problem, we all make mistakes but it takes a man to own up to them. Good video BTW!
I got a old Snap On Modis for $300 off the tool truck. It’s a 4 channel lab scope

Just picked up a Micsig SATO1004, looking forward to using it

Like it iam buying one and would to do the training
Let’s do it! 💪🏻

You got this, charge it up, hook it up and practice practice!
thanks
If I can be of any help please let me know 😁
The best!
i want to learn more
Absolutely! I teach this and much more in my diagnostics course, and will be posting more videos to go along with it real soon!

where can i get trainning on autel
With us! 😁

Was this a square wave signal?
No
Just a straight up and straight down pattern
