Connecting
See the HDO8000A Oscilloscopes Operator's Manual for more instructions
on connecting to external devices.
LAN
HDO8000A accepts DHCP network addressing. Connect a cable from
either Ethernet port on the back panel to a network access device. Go to
Utilities > Utilities Setup > Remote to find the IP address.
To assign the oscilloscope a static IP address, open Net Connections
from the Remote dialog and use the Windows networking dialogs to
configure the device address. Go to File > File Sharing to configure email.
Printer
HDO8000A supports USB printers that are compatible with the Windows
OS installed on the oscilloscope. Connect the printer to any host USB port,
then go to File > Print and select Printer to configure settings. Choose
Properties to open the Windows print dialog.
Audio/USB Peripherals
Connect the device to the appropriate port. These connections are "plug-
and-play". Use the Windows control panel to make adjustments. Choose
File > Minimize to go to the Windows desktop.
Remote Control
Connect from either the LAN port (for TCP/IP and LXI) or the USBTMC
port on the back. Go to Utilities > Utilities Setup > Remote to configure
remote control.
SET UP
External Monitor
HDO8000A supports up to UHD monitors with 3840x2160 resolution.
Connect the monitor cable to the Display Port output on the back of the
instrument (you can use a convertor if the cable has a different interface).
Go to Display > Display Setup > Open Monitor Control Panel to configure
display settings using the Windows control panel dialogs. Be sure to
configure the oscilloscope as the primary display.
To use the Extend Grids feature, configure the second monitor to extend,
not duplicate, the oscilloscope display. If the external monitor is touch
screen enabled, the MAUI user interface can be controlled from the
external monitor.
Note: The oscilloscope touch screen uses Fujitsu drivers. Because of
potential conflicts, external monitors with Fujitsu drivers cannot be used
as touch screens, only as displays.
External Sample Clock
To input an external sample clock, connect a BNC cable from EXT on
the front of the instrument to the clock source device. Go to Timebase >
Horizontal Setup > Clock Source to configure the clock.
Reference Clock
To input or output a reference clock, connect a BNC cable from Ref In/Out
on the back of the instrument to the other instrument. Go to Timebase >
Horizontal Setup > Clock Source to configure the clock.
Auxiliary Output
Connect a BNC cable from Aux Out on the back of the instrument to the
other device. Go to Utilities > Utilities Setup > Aux Output to configure
the output signal.
