Manuals

The original and -B versions had a Floppy Disk drive and Centronics printer port. The C version replaced the Floppy with a USB drive, and dropped the the parallel port.

Optional Communication Modules include the TDS3GM (GPIB/RS-232), TDS3VM (VGA/RS-232), TDS3EM (Ethernet/RS-232), TDS3GV (GPIB, RS-232/VGA), and the TDS3SDI 601 Serial/Digital Video Module.

Up to four Applications modules can be added into the small compartment in the upper right corner: TDS3AAM Advanced Analysis Module, TDS3LIM Limit Testing Module, TDS3TMT Telecommunications Mask Testing Module, and the TDS3VID Extended Video Analysis Module, TDS3TRG Advanced Trigger Module, and TDS3FFT Fast Fourier Transform Module. The latter two functions were permanently enabled at TDS3000B firmware version 3.21, making those two application modules irrelevant.

There are many options for signal acquisition, measurement, and analysis. The Getting Started section of the User Manual is a great place to become familiar with the many functions available.
