ScopeE xplorer
is a highly practical PC-based connectivity tool that interfaces Waverunner to a PC that is
running Microsoft
Windows
, via the rear panel GPIB (IE EE 488) or RS-232 port. Specially designed by
L eCroy for its oscilloscopes, ScopeExplorer allows you to perform data and image transfers and other remote
operations from scope to PC with just a few keyboard strokes or mouse clicks. See Chapter 12, “U se
Waver unner wit h P C ,” for more about using ScopeExplorer with your Waverunner scope.
S copeE xplorer now has a virtual front panel to allow full control of remote scopes.
ActiveDSO
works on any PC running Windows 95, 98 or NT
, and enables you to exchange data with a
variety of Windows applications or programming languages that support the ActiveX standard, such as MS
Office, Internet Explorer, Visual Basic, Visual C+ + and Visual Java. ActiveDSO hides the intricacies of
programming for each of these interfaces and provides a simple and consistent interface to the controlling
application. You can also visually embed ActiveDSO in any OL E automation compatible client and use it
manually without programming. You could, for example, generate a report by importing scope data straight
into Excel or Word, analyze your waveforms by bringing them directly into MathCad
, archive measurement
results “on the fly” in a Microsoft Access
database, and automate tests using Visual Basic, Java, C+ + , or
Excel (VBA).
