The digital method of storage provides many advantages notably the facilites for Viewing pretrigger information and displaying waveforins flicker free for an indefinite period. The dual 20S analogue to digital convertors maintain the full storage specification for single or dual ciannel operation for timebase speeds of 50 secjdiv to Susec/atv. Controls are available 10 lock the data individually for each channel allowing comparisons to be easily made between wave: forms. ‘The analogue output enables the waveforms to be recorded permanently on a chart recorder at a selected. ‘output speed. Auto plot will allow any number of ‘captured events to be recorded automatically in a baby sitting mode. In addition the 4035 has 2 GPIB Talk only mode, which, will send out the contents of the specified store to @ digital plotter, in a form accepted by a number of available plotters with a GPIB interface ‘The 4035 features two idemtical input channels with a ‘maximum sensitivity of 2mV/diw and a bandwidth From DC to 20MM The channels may be displayed sepa- rately of together in both Storage or Non Storage modes. The ability to display the sum or difference of the chanel inputs and an XY mode operation are available in che Non Storage mode. The timebase ranges are $O0ns/ Storage mode. A x 10 facility expands the upper sweep speed to SOns/div in Non storage and gives expansion 10 observe the full detail of the Tk word stored traces. [A pair of cursors are available on elther trace, for con: ‘venience in making measurements on the traces. A 16 character display on the screen displays the time and. voltage difference between the wo cursor, A GPIB interface is fitted, sv that 4 GPIB conticler (cea microcomputer) can obtain stored trace infor ation from the oscilloscope and i required send & trace to the screen. It also permits emote control of the oscilloscopes digital controls Variable controls are avallable for input sensitivities and Non storage timebase speeds ‘The comprehensive trigger facilities have an ‘auto” func- ton to assist the operator by ensuring a trace is present fn the absence of trigger. AC & DC coupling and either channel or external source selection with @ line supply at the rear panel ensures the appropriate trigger is avail- able forall applications, An active TV syne separator is provided for viewing or storing video waveforms. [Additional factities are provided sults IKI calibrator signal, DC coupled Z modulation input and a trace rotational control ‘The instrument is portable and the use of a large custom integrated circuit has reduced the number of components swith the benefit of reliability and ease of maintenance.FOR SERVICE MANUALS, veenw.mauritron,co.uk TEL: 01844 - 351604 DISPLAY FAX: 01844 - 352554 CRT 8x 10cm rectangular.

Invert CH2 may be inverted. When used in conjunction with Adé Mode, it gives the algebraic difference of the two channels, X-Y CHI gives X deflection and CH2 input gives Y deflection, (Non Storage Mode only).
