==Operation== | |||
The 7504 has several modes of operation, all outlined in the manual: | |||
; Single-Trace Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Left, Horizontal Mode: A. Single-trace vertical plugin installed in the left vertical compartment, single-timebase plugin installed in horizontal compartment A. | |||
: Provides a display of a single-trace vertical unit against one time-base unit. | |||
: Note: Any combination of one vertical and one horizontal plugin can be chosen as needed. | |||
; Dual-Trace Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Alt or Chop, Horizontal Mode: A. Single-trace vertical plugins installed in both vertical compartments, single-timebase plugin installed in horizontal compartment A. | |||
: Provides a display of two single-trace vertical units against one time-base unit. | |||
; Dual-Sweep Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Left, Horizontal Mode: Alt or Chop. Single-trace vertical plugin installed in the left vertical compartment, single-timebase plugins installed in both horizontal compartments. | |||
: Provides a dual-sweep display of a single-trace vertical unit against two time-base units. | |||
; Dual-Trace/Dual-Sweep Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Chop, Horizontal Mode: Alt or Chop. Single-trace vertical plugins installed in both vertical compartments, single-timebase plugins installed in both horizontal compartments. | |||
: Provides a dual-trace, dual-sweep display of two single-trace vertical units against two time-base units (four total traces) | |||
; Sweep-Slaving Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Alt, Horizontal Mode: Alt or Chop. Single-trace vertical plugins installed in both vertical compartments, single-timebase plugins installed in both horizontal compartments. | |||
: Provides a dual-trace, dual-sweep display where the left vertical plugin is displayed at the sweep rate of the B timebase plugin, and similarly for the right vertical and B horizontal plugins. | |||
; Delayed-Sweep Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Left, Horizontal Mode: Alt or Chop. Single-trace vertical plugin installed in the left vertical compartment. Delaying timebase plugin installed in horizontal compartment A, and a single-timebase plugin installed in horizontal-compartment B. | |||
: Provides a simultaneous display of a delaying timebase and delayed timebase, providing an effective "zoom" function. | |||
; X-Y Display: | |||
: Vertical Mode: Left, Horizontal Mode: A. Single-trace vertical plugins installed in both the left vertical compartment and the A horizontal compartment. | |||
: The X signal is input into the A horizontal plugin while the Y signal is input into the left vertical plugin. Alternatively, some 7B series timebase plugins include X-Y capability. | |||
Due to the modular design of the instrument, there are many more possible modes of operation. For example, horizontal plugins can be installed in both the vertical and horizontal plugins to provide a raster display, or dual-trace plugins can be used in any of the above configurations. | |||
