Comparator and statistical operation function make it easy to improve the efficiency of line inspection work.
Unit conversion (rpm, speed, etc.) is possible using the scaling operation function.
It is easy to check the waveform amplitude by measuring the peak voltage of the input signal.
Streamline routine inspection work by saving/recalling panel setup.
USB, LAN, digital I/O are equipped as standard.
A highly expandable set of options.

■10MHz STD INPUT

A terminal that inputs a more stable 10MHz reference frequency from the outside. In the SYSTEM menu, when RefClk: SOUR = EXT is set, the internal reference oscillator is detached and the measurement is performed at a frequency of 10MHz of the external reference oscillator.

■10MHz / (MARKER) OUTPUT

A terminal that outputs an internal 10MHz reference frequency or marker signal. Outputs an internal reference signal of 10MHz.

Digital I/O interface

A terminal that outputs an internal 10MHz reference frequency or marker signal. Outputs an internal reference signal of 10MHz.

LAN interface

A connection terminal for the LAN interface It can be connected to a PC, etc. and can be remotely controlled from the outside.
