Display Features
Color LCD Display. Identify and differentiate waveforms easily with
color coding. Waveforms, re adout s, and buttons are color matc hed to
increase productivity and reduce opera ting errors. See page 3--25.
Digital Phosphor. A Digital Phosphor Oscilloscope can clearly display
intensity modulation in your signa ls. The oscilloscope automatically
overlays subsequent acquisitions and then decays them to simulate
the writing and decay of the phosphor in an analog oscilloscope
CRT. This feature results in an intensity-graded waveform display
that shows the i nformation contained in the intensity modulation.
Seepage3--5.
Signal Preview. Use the preview feature to optimize the control
settings when setting up a single-shot acquisition. As you adjust the
controls, the adjustments modify the current acquisition to show a
preview of how the next acquisition should appe ar. See page 3--8.
Measurement Features
Cursors. Use cursors to take simple voltage, time, and frequency
measurements. See page 3--16.
Automatic Measurements. Choose from a li st of automatic waveform
measurements. You can customize the measurements by changing
reference levels or by adding measurement gating. See page 3 --39.
XY Waveform Cursors. Use cursors to take measurements on XY
waveforms. See page 3--21.
