NOTE. If the banner you produce from the integrated thermal printer is
unreadable because it is too light, open the printer cover and push the lever on
the right side of the printer towards the back of the oscilloscope as far as it will
go.
Banner printing is not compatible with:
H Fast Acquisition mode
H Persistence display mode
H XY or XYZ mode
H Zoom mode
If you have an attached keyboard, press the P rint Screen (Prt Sc) key to copy the
screen contents to the Windows clipboard. This bitmap does not include the
waveforms or graticule. The waveforms and graticule are displayed by the
graphics adapter outside of normal Windows mechanisms.
To capture the oscilloscope screen with its graticule and waveforms, use the Edit
menu Copy command after selecting Image in the Copy Setup menu, or to build
a bitmap file, select the File menu Export command after selecting Full Screen
(bitmap) in the Select for Export menu. For additional information see Exporting
and Copying Waveforms on page 3--196.
You can display the current date and time on screen so that they appear on hard
copies you print. To do this, toggle the Display Date/Time button On form the
Display Setup control window Objects tab. If you need to reset the date and time
for any reason, use the Utilities menu Set Date & Time command.
Remote Communication
Remote communication is performed through the GPIB (General Purpose
Interface Bus). The product software CD-ROM contains the TDS5000 Series
Programmer Online Guide, which consists of GPIB online help and PDF. Refer
to this documentation for help with establishing remote control with your
instrument (taking measurements, setting controls, performing calculations, and
so on).
Use the Utilities menu GPIB Configuration command to open the GPIB
Configuration control window. Click Talk/Listen to enable the GPIB. Click the
Address control to map it to a multipurpose knob and use the knob to set the
GPIB address for the oscilloscope. Click Off Bus to make the GPIB port
unavailable.
