Datasheet
Configuration of the channels and management of the sensors:
The coefficients, scales, and units of the sensors and the channel configurations are
managed automatically.
The first two control buttons of the probes are used to directly modify the adjustment
parameters of the channel to which they are connected or to copy functions of the
front panel of the oscilloscope. The third button is specific to the accessory. On
voltage probes, for example, it controls the lighting of the measurement zone. When
the connection is made, all preferred parameters stored in the accessories
(assignments of buttons 1 and 2, colour) are automatically reactivated. They can be
modified using the Probix "pop-up" shown opposite.

Real-time fast Fourier transform (FFT)
for a frequency analysis of your signals
The FFT is used to calculate - at 2,500 points - the discrete representation of a signal
in the frequency domain from its representation in the time domain. It is often a
powerful means to an effective diagnostic in an analysis of signal quality:
➧
measurement of the various harmonics and distortion of a signal,
➧
analysis of impulse response,
➧
the search for a noise source in logical circuits,
➧
etc.
Several weighting windows are available, along with 2 representation modes, linear
and logarithmic (scale in dB). The 2 cursors can then be used to make precise
measurements of frequency spikes, levels, and attenuations, taking advantage of
the 80-dB dynamic range allowed by the 12-bit / 1-GS/s conversion.
The autoset makes it easier to obtain an optimum spectral representation on which
a graphic zoom can be applied in order to analyze all details of the spectrum.
File management
Each of the traces can be transferred and displayed instantaneously as reference by
pressing on a single key for an immediate comparison and difference
measurements. Backups are possible in two formats: .TRC, to be called back up on
screen; or .TXT, for direct export to another standard "Windows" application, such
as a spreadsheet.
The system is your assurance that using the instrument will be not only
rapid but also, more important, error-free, which is critical for devices used for
troubleshooting. For unfailing compatibility, the connection of BNCs and of standard
cords is always possible using the safety adapters provided.
An interchangeable plastic ring is used to match the colour of the accessory to the
colour of its channel. Power is supplied and the sensors calibrated directly, from the
oscilloscope. Some accessories even have three control buttons accessible on the
probe itself.
The "Windows-like" file management of series
OX 7000 instruments lets you keep more than
100 curves, a practically unlimited number of
instrument configurations, many, many mathematical
functions for re-use, and large series of screen
captures in the Windows ".GIF" format for later use.
