WaveAce Lab 3: Making Measurements
Summary
This guide provides step by
step instructions explaining
how to use the WaveAce
Oscilloscope.
The WaveAce Oscilloscope provides tools for viewing, measuring and
analyzing digital, serial and analog waveforms. This guide will explain how
to use the various tools built-in to WaveAce such as cursors, waveform
magnifier, history mode, and remote control
Overview:
The Measure Lab is addresses the use of cursors and
measure parameters found in modern digital oscilloscopes like the
WaveAce.
One of the major advantages of DSOs is their accurate measurement of
acquired data using cursors or standard parameters. A variety of cursors
are used with your WaveAce instrument. Also the WaveAce oscilloscope
offers three varieties of standard parameters
— Voltage, Time and Delay.
This lab shows how these cursors and standard parameters can be easily
displayed to characterize pulses both vertically and horizontally.
Goal:
Learn how to configure and use:
- Voltage cursors
- Time (Frequency) cursors
- Track cursors
- Standard measure parameters
In this Lab you will learn to use cursors and also to use standard measure
parameters for signal characterization.
Required Equipment:
-
1 x WaveAce Oscilloscope
-
1 x WaveAce passive probe
Setup:
Connect the probe to Channel 2 and the probe top to the
calibrator (CAL) output loop on the front panel. Use the sprung hook
accessory of the probe to clip to the CAL output loop.
