M Pos = ----
wheel acts on: – (click a dial first)
Balls on the hangers

the angle is not printed anywhere: read it off the protractor, as on the bench
Electromagnet holder
Notes
Every oscilloscope setting is on the instrument itself: click a dial to select it, then turn the mouse wheel over the panel. Pushing a knob does what the manual says – HORIZONTAL POSITION zeroes the delay, SEC/DIV toggles Zoom, VERTICAL POSITION zeroes the offset, VOLTS/DIV toggles coarse and fine, TRIGGER LEVEL jumps to 50 %. Roll runs at 50 ms/div and slower; Single takes one shot.
