Communications (RS-232, Centronics, and RS-232/USB)
Use the communications functions of the oscilloscope to do the following tasks:
Send a screen image to an external device (printer or computer)
Set up and test the RS-232 interface
Set up and use the RS-232/USB cable
WARNING. Do not float the TPP0101 or TPP0201 probe reference lead to >
30 V
RMS
. Use the P5120 probe (floatable to 600 V
RMS
CAT II or 300 V
RMS
CAT III)
or similarly rated, passive, high v oltage probe (not the ground re ferenced P5100
probe), or an appropriately rated, high voltage, differential probe when floating
the refer
ence lead above 30 V
RMS
, subject to the ratings of such high voltage probe.
To avoid electric shock when using probes with exposed metal parts, do not
connect
the reference lead to voltages above 30 V
RMS
.
The oscilloscope power-up banner displays a warning message similar to that
shown
above. The fi rst RS232 command that the oscilloscope receives will clear
this warning message.
Sending a Screen Image to an External Device
The oscilloscope lets you send a screen image to an external device, such as
a printer or computer.
