TDS 500C, TDS 600B, & TDS 700C User Manual
Executing Tek Secure accomplishes the following tasks:
H Replaces all waveforms in reference memories with zero sample values.
H Replaces the current front panel setup and all setups stored in setup memory
with the factory setup.
H Calculates the checksums of all waveform memory and setup memory
locations to verify successful completion of setup and waveform erasure.
H If the checksum calculation is unsuccessful, displays a warning message; if
the checksum calculation is successful, displays a confirmation message.
To run file utilities, see the Managing the File System on page 3–160.
See Example 4: Saving Setups, on page 2–28.
Saving and Recalling Waveforms and Acquisitions
TDS Oscilloscope provides four internal reference memories in any of which you
can store a waveform. Waveforms thus stored are retained even when you turn
the oscilloscope off or unplug it. The oscilloscope also can save waveforms and,
with Option 2M, extended record-length acquisitions to disk. This section
describes how to save, delete, and display reference waveforms and acquisitions.
The oscilloscope can display up to 11 waveforms at one time. That includes
waveforms from the four input channels, four reference waveforms, and three
math waveforms. You can save any combination of different size waveform
records.
You will find saving waveforms useful when working with many waveforms and
channels. If you have more waveforms than you can display, you can save one of
the waveforms and then stop acquiring it. By doing so, you free an input channel
to display another waveform without losing the first one.
