General Product
Description
This subsection begins with a general description of the traits of
the 2212 oscilloscope. Three subsections follow, one for each of the
three classes of characteristics:
nominal traits, warranted charac-
teristics, and typical characteristics.
User Interface
This oscilloscope uses the front-panel buttons and knobs to control
its many functions. The front-panel controls are grouped according
to function: vertical, horizontal, trigger, cursor, setup, and storage.
The controls just to the right of the crt screen are called the display
group. Within each group, the functions are set directly by their
own front-panel knob.
When Option 10 (GPIB) and/or Option 12 (RS-232-C) are included
most functions of the oscilloscope can be operated externally by a
controller (PC).
Indicators
Several on-screen readouts help you keep track of the settings for
various functions, such as vertical and horizontal scale and trigger
level. There are also crt readouts to display the results of measure-
ments, using cursors.
