Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have really started to like my scope. At first it took a little getting used to since the controls are a bit different from a hardware scope -- but now it is my scope of choice on the bench except where I need the wide bandwidth of an analog scope. The hardware is supurb -- it is accurate and the triggering is excellent. The best feature, of course, is its ability to show what happened BEFORE THE TRIGGER which is great for catching the glitches that caused the trigger event.
The spectrum analyzer is OK once you understand that there is not low pass filter so that signals that are above the high frequency cutoff alias into the inband display. It could have log displays etc, but for the dollar it's a great value.
The transient recorder looks good and is a unique feature that I haven't had occasion to try yet.
The scope installed quickly and ran the first time on my windows XP and VISTA machines. The two probes that are supplied are great quality and very similar to the TEK/HP probes we are all used to.
My only criticism is that while the software user interface is quite usable, it's a bit clumsy and was probably written some time ago and never updated to act like more current interfaces. The online documentation is a bit weak and could use some improvement and the hard copy is very basic. But, as I said, the scope is quite functional after you get used to the interface.
While it isn't quite as good as a $5000 TEK digital scope it sure gives plenty of bang for the buck.
I'd buy it again in a minute.
