Math Functions

6000 Series Oscilloscope User's Guide
The Math menu lets you display math functions on analog
channels. You can:
• subtract (–) or multiply (*) the signals acquired on analog
channels 1 and 2, then display the result.
• integrate, differentiate, perform an FFT, or the square root
function on the signal acquired on any analog channel or on
math functions 1 * 2, 1 – 2, or 1 + 2, then display the result.
To access math functions:
1 Press the Math key on the front panel to display the
Waveform Math Menu.
2 Press the Function sofkey and use the Entry knob (or keep
pressing the Function sofkey) to select the desired math
function.
After selecting a math function, softkeys for changing that
math function's settings appear in the Waveform Math
Menu.
Math Operating Hints
If the analog channel or math function is clipped (not fully displayed on screen,)
the resulting displayed math function will also be clipped.
Once the function is displayed, the analog channel(s) may be turned off for better
viewing.
The vertical scaling and offset of each math function can be adjusted for ease of
viewing and measurement considerations.
Each function can be measured in the Cursors and Quick Meas menus.
