Connected to a PC's USB port for power and communication, this oscilloscope offers the performance of a bench-top four-channel scope, but is compact and lightweight.
Supplied with a user-friendly software interface, the scope offers additional capabilities include FFT and X-Y display (Lissajous figures). Stable multitrigger options include edge, video, slope, pulse, and alternate settings. The additional rear connector can function as a trigger input, trigger output, or pass/fail output.
