This video tutorial demonstrates how to set the gains on a car amplifier using the DSO Nano version 3, a digital storage oscilloscope. The presenter uses a Sundown 100.2 amplifier for mids and highs, a 1000 Hz test tone, and the provided plugs for the speaker terminals. The process begins by configuring the DSO Nano: setting the voltage to 10 volts and the milliseconds to 2. The presenter then navigates to the 'data' menu and switches the purple setting off. Next, the head unit's volume is turned up to identify clipping. The presenter notes that with the current settings, there is no clipping even at volume 35. The core of the tutorial involves adjusting the amplifier's gain. The goal is to increase the gain until the oscilloscope shows the signal going flat, indicating clipping. The presenter initially tries 05 milliseconds, then adjusts the gain, observing clipping. The gain is then backed down until clipping is just avoided, signifying the correct gain setting. The tutorial concludes by stating that the gains are now set.

All right, today I'm going to show you how to set up the DSO Nano version 3 to set your games on your amplifier.

Today I'm using the uh Sundown 100.2 on my mids and highs and uh I'm playing a 1,00 HZ tone to test this out. And I have my the plugs that came with this DSO and I have them in the uh negative and positive speaker terminal and I have the pin screw down in there.

And once you turn this on [Music] you're going to want to set your voltage. You're going to want to hit the over button, set it to 10 volts. Then you're going to want to go to your millisecond and change that to change that over to 2 milliseconds. And then go to data, go down to the purple one and switch that over.

Turn it off. And then now I'm going to go to the uh head unit and turn the volume up to find if it's clipping. And that's full volume. And you can see that there's no clipping all the way up to 35.

Now we're going to adjust the gain until we see the signal go flat. Actually, 05 Ms works better. Now we're going to turn our gain up. And right there you can see it's clipping. So we're going to back it down. There's clipping, that's clipping. We're going to back it down. About right there is good.

And that's it. You set your gains.

all right today I'm going to show you
how to set up the DSO Nano version 3 to
set your games on your amplifier today
I'm using the uh Sundown
100.2 on my mids and highs and uh I'm
playing a 1,00 HZ tone to test this out
and I have my the plugs that came with
this DSO and I have them in the uh
negative and positive speaker terminal
and I have the pin screw down in there
and once you turn this on
[Music]
you're going to want to set your
voltage you're going to want to hit the
over
button set it to 10
volts then you're going to want to go to
your millisecond and change that
to change that over to 2
milliseconds and then go to data go down
to the purple one and switch that over
turn it off
and then now I'm going to go to the uh
head unit and turn the volume up to find
if it's
clipping and that's full volume and you
can see that there's no clipping all the
way up to 35
now we're going to adjust the
gain until we see the signal go flat
actually 05 Ms works
better now we're going to turn our gain
up
and right there you can see it's
clipping so we're going to back it
down there's
clipping that's
clipping we're going to back it
down about right there is good and
that's it you set your gains
