Acquiring digital signals
Connect a P6316 digital probe to a oscilloscope input channel. Connect the probe inputs to the DUT (see the probe instructions). Then use
the following instructions to set up, acquire and display digital signals.
• Connect and set up digital signals on page 78
• Add a serial bus to the Waveform view on page 68
• Add a parallel bus to the Waveform view on page 70
Connect and set up digital signals
Use the digital channel configuration menu to set the digital channels to acquire signals.
CAUTION: T
o prevent damage to the instrument always wear an antistatic wrist strap when making connections to the instrument
and DUT. Always observe the maximum input voltage ratings for input connectors.
1. Connect the P6316
digital logic probe to the instrument.
2. Connect the probe to the signal sources. Use the accessories in the Tektronix Probe Accessory Kit (shipped with the probe) to
connect to your DUT.
3. Push the Digital button on the front panel to open the digital channel configuration menu. Set up digital channels to match your digital
logic requirements.
4. T
ap Display to toggle the digital channel group On or Off.
5. To change the displayed height of the digital channels, tap a Height button. The height settings are only available when the display
mode is set to Overlay in the Waveform View configuration menu.
6. Use the upper Label field to enter a custom label for the overall digital channel. Double-tap on the field and use the virtual keyboard
or tap the field and use an attached keyboard.
7. Tap the Bit control to toggle individual digital channel bits On or Off and remove them from the displayed logic waveform.
8. Use the bit Label fields to enter labels for the individual digital channel bits (D0-D15). Double-tap on the field and use the virtual
keyboard or tap the field and use an attached keyboard.
9. Tap D15-D8 Turn All Off or D7-D0 Turn All Off to turn all digital bits Off.
10. To set all bit thresholds to the same value for D15-D8 or D7-D0 bits, enter a threshold value in the Thresholds field.
