Wave Inspector

navigation and search

A 1 M point record length represents thousands of screens of information.

The MSO/DPO2000B Series enables you to search through it all and find

your event in seconds with Wave Inspector, the industry's best tool for

navigation and search.

Wave Inspector offers the following innovative controls:

Zoom/pan

A dedicated, two-tier front-panel control provides intuitive control of both

zooming and panning. The inner control adjusts the zoom factor (or zoom

scale); turning it clockwise activates zoom and goes to progressively higher

zoom factors, while turning it counterclockwise results in lower zoom

factors and eventually turning zoom off. No longer do you need to navigate

through multiple menus to adjust your zoom view. The outer control pans

the zoom box across the waveform to quickly get to the portion of waveform

you are interested in. The outer control also utilizes force-feedback to

determine how fast to pan on the waveform. The farther you turn the outer

control, the faster the zoom box moves. Pan direction is changed by simply

turning the control the other way.

Play/pause

A dedicated play/pause front-panel button scrolls the waveform across the

display automatically while you look for anomalies or an event of interest.

Playback speed and direction are controlled using the intuitive pan control.

Once again, turning the control further makes the waveform scroll faster

and changing direction is as simple as turning the control the other way.

Wave Inspector controls provide unprecedented efficiency in viewing, navigating, and

analyzing waveform data. Zip through your 1 Mpoint record by turning the outer pan

control (1). Get from the beginning to end in seconds. See something of interest and

want to see more details? Just turn the inner zoom control (2).

User marks

Press the Set Mark front-panel button to place one or more marks on the

waveform. Navigating between marks is as simple as pressing the

Previous (←) and Next (→) buttons on the front panel.

Search marks

The Search button allows you to automatically search through your long

acquisition looking for user-defined events. All occurrences of the event are

highlighted with search marks and are easily navigated to, using the front-

panel Previous (←) and Next (→) buttons. Search types include edge,

pulse width/glitch, runt, logic, setup and hold, rise/fall time parallel bus, and

C, SPI, CAN, LIN, and RS-232/422/485/UART packet content.

Search step 1: You define what you would like to find.

Search step 2: Wave Inspector automatically searches through the record and marks

each event with a hollow white triangle. You can then use the Previous and Next

buttons to jump from one event to the next.
