A good oscilloscope should
simplify how you work and
shorten the time it takes to
nd and debug problems.
The WaveAce combines
long memory, a color display,
extensive measurement
capabilities, advanced
triggering and excellent
connectivity to improve
troubleshooting and shorten
debug time. With bandwidths
from 40 MHz to 200 MHz,
sample rates up to 2 GS/s
and waveform memory
up to 10 kpts/Ch (20 kpts
interleaved) the WaveAce
exceeds all expectations of a
small affordable oscilloscope.
Digital Filter
Digital ltering is available on each
channel of the WaveAce. The Low-Pass,
High-Pass, Band-Pass and Band-Stop
lters allow you to isolate only the
frequencies you want to see.
Trigger
Edge triggering is not always the best
choice for every signal. Beyond the
basic edge trigger is a set of trigger
capabilities which include Pulse Width,
Video and Slope (Rise Time) triggers.
Long Capture and Zoom
Small, portable oscilloscopes often
suffer from short capture time due
to the small waveform memory. The
WaveAce is available in 4 kpts/Ch
and 10 kpts/Ch congurations which
is up two to three times more than
competitive products. More memory
results in longer capture times showing
more waveform detail with each trigger.
Activate the built-in zoom function
to take a closer look at the details.

Pass/Fail Test
With built-in Pass/Fail Mask testing
the WaveAce can quickly identify
problems and let you know when
they occur. A history of the P/F results
can be displayed on the screen.
Waveform Sequence Recorder
Capture and replay a sequence of
up to 2500 waveforms to isolate
that runt or glitch which is causing
problems in your system.
Large Internal Storage
Saving and recalling waveforms and
setups from internal memory can save
a lot of time during test and debug. The
WaveAce can save up to 20 waveforms,
20 setups and two reference waveforms
to the internal memory.
Acquisition Modes
Different applications call for different
acquisitions modes. The WaveAce
offers Real Time, Equivalent Time, Peak
Detect and Averaging modes to ensure
that any waveform can be captured
and displayed.
Automatic Measurements
With 32 standard automatic measure-
ments the WaveAce simplies
how you work. Display up to ve
measurements without crowding
the waveform display or show all
32 at once with the measurement
dashboard. A wide range of advanced
timing parameters provide insight
to the relationship between two
different signals.
Waveform Math
The WaveAce provides ve math
functions including Add, Subtract,
Multiply, Divide and FFT. The FFT
capability includes the choices of
four windows and two different
vertical scales.
Connectivity
The WaveAce provides a USB host port
on the front panel for saving screen
images, waveforms and setups to a
memory stick. A rear panel USB device
port allows for connection to a PC or
printer. Connecting and communicating
with a PC is simplied with EasyScope
software providing full access to the
oscilloscopes display, measurements,
waveform data and front panel controls.

1. Fast Power Up
The WaveAce turns on and is ready for
use in under 10 seconds.
2. Display
All WaveAce models have a
5.7" color display.
3. Connectivity
Saving waveforms, screenshots and
setups is easy with the front panel USB
port for use with a memory stick.
4. Portability
The small compact form factor is
lightweight and only 5" deep.
5. Communication
Rear panel USB and RS-232 ports
enable direct remote control from
a PC. The USB port also allows for
connecting to a printer.
6. Intensity
Waveform intensity can be quickly
adjusted by rotating this knob, a
meter on the display will appear
and show the current setting.
7. Individual Vertical Controls
Quickly change the vertical scale
of either channel.

8. Push Knobs
All WaveAce knobs can be pushed
for additional capabilities. Push the
V/div knobs to toggle between xed
and variable gain. Push the T/div knob
to enter zoom mode and push the
position knobs to center the waveform
on screen.
9. Local Language User
Interface
The intuitive user interface is available
in several different languages.
10. Front Panel Print Button
Saving or Printing screenshots requires
only a single button press.
11. Backlit Menu Buttons
When using certain features like
Cursors or Measurements the button
remains lit for easy menu navigation.
12. Context Sensitive Help
Press any button or turn any knob while
in help mode and a pop-up
window displays the functionality
of that control.
13. Auto Setup
Quickly congures the vertical,
horizontal and trigger settings for
the WaveAce. Choose to view the
waveform as multi-cycle, single-
cycle, rising or falling edge.
