Taking Floating Measurements
This section covers important issues to consider when taking floating
measurements.
Architecture is Important
For taking floating measurements, the TekScope instrument has
an architectural difference from most other oscilloscopes. The
channel 1, channel 2, and DMM inputs are isolated from the main
chassis and from each other. This architecture allows independent
floating measurements with channel 1, channel 2, and the DMM.
Electrically insulated case
Oscilloscope channels and DMM
float independently.
