Industrial troubleshooter works harder
Fluke has extended its Industrial ScopeMeter 120 Series of integrated industrial troubleshooting tools.
The Fluke ScopeMeter 123 and 124 are truly integrated test tools, combining the three most frequently used service tools: a dual input oscilloscope with 20 or 40MHz bandwidth, a true-RMS multimeter and a "paperless" recorder in one affordable, easy to use instrument.
The unique "connect-and-view" hands-off trigger functionality recognises signal patterns and automatically sets up correct triggering.
It provides a stable and repeatable display of virtually any signal.
On-screen cursor measurements offer more detailed analysis of scope waveforms.
When communication problems occur on a CANbus, a powerful diagnostic tool is required.
The new application note explains how the 120 ScopeMeter, with its dual-input and steady signal display capability, can actually display and zoom in on the "physical layer" bus signals.
The application note "Verifying CANbus signals with a Fluke ScopeMeter 120 Series" can be freely downloaded from Fluke's website via the Scopemeter 120 Series product pages. Request a free brochure from Fluke (UK) ...
