  • Page 34: Measurements & Statistics

    BASICS Measurements & Statistics Measurements are waveform parameters that can be expressed as numerical values, such as amplitude or frequency. You can set up-to-eight simultaneous measurements on one or more traces and view the active readout in a table. Statistics can be added to the readout along with histicons, a miniature histogram of the statistical distribution.

  • Page 35: Math

One important distinction between math functions and measurement parameters is that the result of math is always another waveform, whereas the result of measurement is a number. Choose Math >...

  • Page 36: Memories (Reference Waveforms)

    BASICS Memories (Reference Waveforms) Memories are traces stored for reference. They can be recalled to the display for comparison with other traces. A memory can be zoomed or measured for better analysis of historical data. You can store up-to-four internal memories (M1-M4). After that, new memories will overwrite previously stored data.

    Documenting HDO4000 Oscilloscopes offer several ways to preserve and share data—such as print, save to file, email, or save as Notebook Entry— any of which can be associated with the front panel Print button. Go to Utilities > Utilities Setup > Hardcopy to configure how the oscilloscope handles the Print command.

  • Page 38: Temperature Dependent Calibration

    Temperature Dependent Calibration The HDO4000 is calibrated at the factory prior to being shipped. This calibration is run at 23° C (± 2° C) and is valid for temperatures ± 5° C of the original calibration temperature. Within this temperature range the HDO4000 will meet all of the specifications. When the oscilloscope is used outside of this temperature range a temperature dependent calibration is recommended.
