The Owon RDS1021 Wave Rambler from Saelig Company Inc. is a USB pen scope that packs the features of a high performance bench top oscilloscope in a small, lightweight and ergonomic probe that fits perfectly in the hand. Used with the included PC software, the RDS1021 Wave Rambler converts any laptop or desktop PC into a powerful oscilloscope without the need for additional probes or power supplies. The Wave Rambler displays signals from 5 mV to 50 V. It features FFT capabilities, so it can be used for displaying the frequency characteristics of a signal.

The Owon Wave Rambler is USB2.0-powered and connected and features a large 5 kSa buffer and fast 100 MSa/s sampling to capture high-speed signals. A built-in x 1/x10 switch allows higher voltage signals up to 50 V to be displayed (vertical sensitivity is 5 mV/div – 5 V/div). The horizontal scale can be set between 5 ns/div and 100 s/div. Control of the Wave Rambler is by means of a unique trackball built into the probe top for easy use - no need to take hands-off and adjust the PC! The Wave Rambler even performs a range of automatic measurements: Vpp, Vavg, Vrms, Freq, Period, Vmax, Vmin, Vtop, Vbase, Vamp, Overshoot, Preshoot, Rise Time, Fall Time, +Width, -Width, +Duty, and -Duty. It can also show sampled, peak detect, and average waveforms. Stable waveform triggering can be provided by signal edge, slope, and pulse.

Compact in size (5.9 x 0.8 x 0.7 in .), very lightweight (1 oz) and very affordable, the Wave Rambler is ideal for a mobile servicing toolkit. Included with the Wave Rambler is a ground clip, a protective Cover, a software CDROM, a quick-start manual, and a USB Cable.
