PRINTING AND PLOTTING

Description:

In the digital mode a hard copy of the information on the CRT can be made to a printer or a plotter. The hard copy can consist of trace(s), the trace settings, trace identification, cursors, measurement results, and the screen graticule.

The oscilloscope and printer/plotter must be interconnected via a suitable cable and must be set up to the correct interface parameters. The setup of the print or plot action is made in the UTILITY >> PRINT & PLOT & CLOCK menu. The setup of the interface parameters is made in the UTILITY >> REMOTE SETUP or the UTILITY >> RS232 SETUP menu. This is described under the REMOTE CONTROL IEEE 488.2 and RS-232 functions. The settings of the printer or plotter are described in the manual that comes with the printer or plotter.

The front panel key HARDCOPY is used to start a print or plot. During the plot action, the screen shows the message ‘HARDCOPY BUSY: ..% DONE,’ and during a print or plot action, all front panel keys except HARDCOPY are inactive. Pressing the HARDCOPY key again stops the hard copy action. Before continuing, wait for the message ‘HARDCOPY DONE’.
