Application Examples
The f ollowing are some possible e*Scope usage examples:
Prototype Developmen t. A n engineering lab contains prototype boards
that need evaluation. An engineer in the buildin g can use e*Scope to
access and rem otely control a TDS3000C series oscilloscope to capture
and download waveform data to a PC for analysis and inclusio n in
development reports.
Field Serv ice Support. A company's central engineering department
needs to su pport many field service technicians who maintain and repair
installed systems located throughout the world. The field technicians
can connect their TDS3000C series oscilloscopes to the systems,
and the engineers can then use e*Scope to help the field technicians
diagnose difficult problems.
Remote Line Down Troubleshooting. A production line is down i n Korea.
The chief engineer in th e U n ited States can use e*Scope to remotely
control a TD S3 000C series oscilloscope and view the waveforms to
troubleshoot the problem, while having a technician at the production
site probe the oscilloscope.
Remote Broadcast Transmitter Monitoring. A television station needs
to monitor various voltages and w aveforms at a remote transmitter
site. A n engineer at the transm itt er can connect the TDS3000C series
oscilloscope to the station's LAN and t hen connect the oscilloscope to
the approp riate test points. The television statio n engineer can then use
e*Scope to remotely monitor the voltages and waveforms.
