Using the Built-In Information System
Most of the documentation for using the Infiniium Oscilloscope is
included in its built-in information system. The built-in information
system contains the information generally found in a User's Guide.
The information system is available only when the graphical interface is
enabled, and is accessible from the menu bar and from dialog boxes. This
chapter explains how to use the system to find the information you need
to use the oscilloscope effectively.
The following topics are covered in the information system:
• Probing lists the various probes available for the Infiniium
Oscilloscope, discusses probing considerations, and explains how to
use the probes.
• Acquiring and Viewing Waveforms explains how acquisition works,
discusses the acquisition and display functions and controls, and tells
how to use the run/stop controls.
• Display Style, Grid, and Format explains how to alter the display
appearance, tells how to improve the display of certain kinds of
waveforms, and explains the X-versus-Y display function.
• Triggering explains basic triggering concepts, describes the trigger
modes available in the Infiniium Oscilloscope, and tells how to use the
trigger modes.
• Saving Waveforms, Saving Setups, Networking, and Printing
explains how to simplify your work with the oscilloscope by saving
critical waveforms, measurement results, and the oscilloscope
configuration used to obtain them. You can recall the waveforms for
viewing later, or recall the setup to repeat the measurement.
• Measurements, Markers, and Mask Testing describes the built-in
automatic measurement functions of the oscilloscope, explains how
they work, and tells how to use them. Describes the markers and how
to use them. Describes mask testing and how to use it.
• Math, FFTs, and Histograms discusses oscilloscope functions that
perform mathematical operations on one or more waveforms, and
discusses the built-in Fast-Fourier Transform functions. Describes
histograms and how to use them.
