(OP)
can any one give me how to check a oscilooscope? i forgot this long time back . I want to check the wave forms of the a 400 v supply line .

gives basic overview and examples . It gives you a touch & feel also.
2. The Tektronix site gives a detailed tutorial on Oscilloscopes, which is pretty good.

3. The following HP site gives insights to advanced (digitizing) oscilloscopes.

2)Make sure that the scope is set to calibrate
3) set the trigger to auto
4)set the selected channel to AC andhook up the scope across the load (output)
5)Hit auto set (this should show you the waveform)
6)remove the unwanted channel so that you can view only the waveform that is being analyzed
7)Set your vertical and horizontal axes so that you can observe at least 1 period and both (-)ve and (+)ve peaks

RE: osciloscope
I like to make a little addition.
your voltage is 400 volts, that means approximately 1200 volts peak to peak. This voltage stress may damage the input
stage of your oscilloscope. (Check your scope's manual if available). So, you better use an attenuator (X10) probe. (Don't forget to calibrate the probe first.)
