Activating Optional Software
Background
The GDS-3000 has Power Analysis software (page
95) and Serial bus decoding software (page 95) as
optional extras. An activation key is required to
activate the software. An activation key is required
for each optional software package.
If the optional software packages have not been
purchased, a time trial demonstration is available
for a 1 month period. Before activating the time
trial demonstration, ensure the date and time has
been set. Changing the system date will not have
an effect on the time trial period. The time trial
demonstration software can only be used once.
For the latest files and information regarding the
optional software packages, see the GW Instek
