Direct waveform transfer from a DS1000Z scope to a DG4000 generator

...

MSO8000, DS7000 and the MSO5000 Arbitrary Waveform Generator

The signal generator allows you to both create standard waveforms but also allows you to easily create some custom waveforms as well as replicate a captured signal on the oscilloscope. To activate the logic analyzer, press either “GI” or “GII” on either the front panel of the instrument or at the bottom of the screen. To begin with ...

DS1000Z noise performance

Here are a few screen captures of a DS1104Z series oscilloscope with various inputs. The intent is to show the basic noise you can expect from a similar instrument. Figure 1: D...

Unable to save CSV data on a DS1000Z series scope

Comma Separated Values can be saved on a USB memory stick by going to the Storage menu and selecting CSV. If you are unable to save the file and see a "Function  Limited!" error displayed check that the scope has been triggered. For example, if the scope trigger mode is set to Normal and the Run/Stop keypad button is ...
