LabNotebook
Teledyne LeCroy's LabNotebook feature extends the documentation capabilities of your oscilloscope. It
allows you to create and save Notebook Entries containing all displayed waveforms, the oscilloscope setup
under which they were taken, and custom annotations.
Notebook Entries are stored in an internal database and are available for recall at any time. Besides storing
the waveform data, LabNotebook also stores your panel setups and parameter measurements. You can back
up this database to external media for indefinite storage of waveform data.
The Flashback Recall feature instantly recalls the setups stored with individual Notebook Entries, enabling
you to restore the exact state of the oscilloscope at a later date to perform additional analysis.
Create Notebook Entry
A Notebook Entry is a snapshot of the oscilloscope at the moment it is taken: it captures the waveforms,
their setups, and any measurements in process. As each new entry is created, it is added to the database of
My Notebook Entries accessible from the LabNotebook dialog, where they can be recalled to the screen
through Flashback Recall.
1. Choose File > LabNotebook to open the LabNotebook dialog.
2. Touch Create.
3. Optionally, Enter Report Title and Description.
The default title is the date and time stamp. You can leave this as is, append some descriptive text to it,
or completely remove it from your title.
NOTE: By default, you will be prompted to title and annotate notebook entries as they are created. You
can configure LabNotebook preferences so that these steps are skipped in order to streamline the
creation process. To update entries at a later time, select the entry from the list of Notebook Entries,
then open the tab of the same name that appears behind the LabNotebook dialog.
