Recording Scope Waveforms In Deep
Memory (Scope Record)
The SCOPE RECORD function is a roll mode that logs one or
two long waveforms. This function can be used to monitor
waveforms like motion control signals or the power-on
event of an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). During
recording, fast transients are captured. Because of the
deep memory, recording can be done for more than one
day. This function is similar to the roll mode in many
DSO’s but has deeper memory and better functionality.
Starting a Scope Record Function
1 Apply a signal to the red BNC input A.
2 From the Recorder main menu,
highlight Scope Record.
3 Start the recording.
The waveform moves across the screen from right to left
like a normal chart recorder. (See Figure 18.)
Figure 18. Recording Waveforms
Observe that the top of the screen displays the following:
• Time from start at the top of the screen.
• The status at the bottom of the screen which includes
the time/div setting as well as the total timespan that
fits the memory.
Note
For accurate recordings it is advised to let the
instrument first warm up for five minutes.
