INTRODUCTION
The
oscilloscope
has
facilities
to
make
a
hard
copy
of
the
information
on
the
CRT
via
a
plotter
or
a
printer.
The
plot
out
can
consist
of
the
recorded
waveform(s),
the
belonging
oscilloscope
settihgs,
the
trace
identification,
cursors,
results
of
measurements
and
a
measuring
graticule.
Different
options
exist
depending
upon
the
version
of
the
oscilloscope
(indicated
on
type
plate
on
rear
panel).
-
The
standard
or
/OO
version
of
the
oscilloscope
has
no
interface
options
installed.
Consequently
the
plot
out
facilities
are
limited
to
analog
plot
out
via
an
analog
XY
plotter.
-
Version
/40
has
ah
IEEE-488
option
installed.
Plot
out
via
a
number
of
digital
XY
plotters
(compatible
with
HPGL
and
PHILIPS
GL)
and
via
Epson
FX-80
and
compatible
dot-matrix
pr.nters
or
HP
Thinkjet
(HP
2225)
is
possible
if
they
are
equipped
with
an
IEEE-4B8
interlace.
-
Version
/50
has
an
RS-232C
option
installed.
Plot
out
via
a
number
of
digital
XY
plotters
(compatible
with
HPGL
and
PHILIPS
GL)
and
via
Epson
FX-80
and
compatible
dot-matrix
pr.nters
or
HP
Thinkjet
(HP
2225)
is
possible
if
they
are
equipped
with
a
RS-232C
interface.
Before
you
are
able
to
plot
or
print
a
hard
copy
of
the
information
on
the
CRT
it
is
necessary
to
make
some
preparations:
-
Oscilloscope
and
printer/plotter
must
be
interconnected
via
a
suitable
cable.
-
The
oscilloscope
and
the
printer/plotter
must
be
set
up
to
the
correct
interface
parameters.
All
set
up
actions
are
done
under
the
Application
preselect
menu
which
can
be
entered
by
performing
the
following
action:
press
the
front
panel
key
MENU
and
keep
it
pressed.
Then
press
AUTO
SET.
After
this
the
APPL
softkey
must
be
pressed.
Selected
parameters
are
visible
in
the
top
text
area
of
the
CRT.
The
plot
action
Is
started
by
pressing
the
front
panel
PLOT
key.
Please
note
that
during
the
plot
action
the
signal
acquisition
stops
and
all
softkeys
are
inactive.
Plotting
can
be
stopped
by
pressing
the
PLOT
key
again.
The
following
pages
explain
how
to
set
up
the
IEEE-488
interface
and
the
RS-232C
interface
for
the
analog
plot
out.
Also
the
features
and
limitations
are
discussed.
In
order
to
make
a
correct
set
up
possible
it
is
necessary
to
have
an
operator’s
manual
available
of
the
plotter/printer
that
is
to
be
connected
to
the
oscilloscope.
