Software, Customize Your Test and
Measurement System with Familiar Analysis Tools
The analysis and networking features of OpenChoice software add flexibility
to Windows XP Tektronix oscilloscopes: The Windows XP Remote Desktop
functionality enables remote monitoring of the instrument over the internet.
Using the fast embedded bus, waveform data can be moved directly from
acquisition to analysis applications on the Windows desktop at much faster
speeds than conventional GPIB transfers. Implementation by Tektronix
of industry-standard protocols, such as TekVISA™ interface and ActiveX
controls, are included for using and enhancing Windows applications
for data analysis and documentation. Support for the DPO7000 Series
is also available with NI LabVIEW SignalExpress™ Tektronix Edition.
IVI-COM instrument drivers are included to enable easy communication
with the oscilloscope using GPIB, serial data, and LAN connections from
programs running on the instrument or an external PC. Or, use the Software
Developer’s Kit (SDK) to help create custom software to automate multistep
processes in waveform collection and analysis with Visual BASIC, C, C++,
MATLAB, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and other common Application
Development Environments (ADE). Integration of the oscilloscope with
external PCs and non-Windows hosts is also supported by the DPO7000
Series software solutions. In addition, the OpenChoice architecture
provides a comprehensive software infrastructure for faster, more versatile
operations. Data transfer programs, such as the Excel or Word toolbar,
are used to simplify analysis and documentation on the Windows desktop
or on an external PC.
Maximize the probability of capturing elusive glitches and other infrequent events with
FastAcq acquisition mode.

FastAcq Acquisition Mode Expedites Debugging by
Clearly Showing Imperfections
More than just color grading, FastAcq enabled by Tektronix proprietary
DPX
®
acquisition technology captures signals up to more than 250,000
waveforms per second on all 4 channels simultaneously, dramatically
increasing the probability of discovering infrequent fault events. And with a
simple turn of the intensity knob you can clearly see “a world others don’t
see,” because frequency of occurrence is color coded. Some oscilloscope
vendors claim high waveform capture rates for short bursts of time, but only
the DPO7000 Series, enabled by DPX technology, can deliver these fast
waveform capture rates on a sustained basis – saving minutes, hours, or
even days by quickly revealing the nature of faults so sophisticated trigger
modes can be applied to isolate them.
