Tek Se c ure
A feature that erases all waveform and setup memory locations
(setup memories are replaced with the factory setup). Then it
checks each location to verify erasure. This feature is useful
where the oscilloscope is used to gather security-sensitive data.
Time Base
The set of parameters that let you define the time and horizontal
axis attributes of a waveform record. The time base determines
when and how long to acquire record points.
Vertical Bar Cursors
The two vertical bars you position to measure the time
parameter of a waveform record. The oscilloscope displays the
value of the active (moveable) cursor with respect to trigger and
the time value between the bars.
Video Tr igger
Triggering on the sync pulse of a composite video signal.
WaveAlert Waveform Anomaly Detection
A feature that lets you m onitor steady--state waveforms and
notify you when the oscilloscope detects a waveform anomaly.
An anomaly is any waveform t hat differs significantl y from the
previously-acquired waveform.
