Quick Demo Guide
InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscope
Use the scope’s “Auto Demo” mode to quickly demonstrate the following key features
and capabilities of the oscilloscope in two easy steps without requiring an external
demo board:
Auto Demo shows
• Fast waveform update rate
• Mixed signal oscilloscope
• Serial bus decode and trigger
• Segmented memory acquisition
• Mask testing
• WaveGen function generator
Using the “Auto Demo” mode
1. Connect Channel-1 probe between the Demo1 test lug and
ground lug.
2. Connect Channel-2 probe between the Demo2 test lug and
ground lug.
3. Press [Default Setup] front panel key.
4. Press [Help] front panel key.
5. Press Training Signals softkey; then select the CAN
signal from the softkey menu list using the Entry knob.
6. Press Auto Setup softkey.
Easy CAN serial bus decode/trigger using
the built-in “Training Signals”
7. Press [Serial] front panel key; then, press Lister softkey.
8. Press Display softkey; then select Serial 1 (CAN).
9. Set timebase to 200.0 ms/div using Horizontal scale knob.
10. Press [Run/Stop] to stop acquisitions.
11. Press [Search] front panel key; then select Serial 1 (CAN)
from the softkey menu list using Entry knob.
12. Press Search for softkey; then select All Errors.
Search and navigation on CAN errors
The white triangles at the top of the waveform area indicate
the location of each “found” CAN Error Frame . Let’s now
navigate to each CAN Error Frame and take a closer look
at each one.
13. Press the [◄] and [►] front panel navigation buttons to
automatically navigate to each CAN Error Frame.
14. Press Horizontal position knob to set offset to 0 sec.
15. Set timebase to 100.0 μs/div using Horizontal scale knob.
16. Press [Run/Stop] front panel key.
17. Press [Acquire] front panel key.
18. Press Segmented softkey; then select # of Segments =
500 using Entry knob.
19. Press Segmented softkey to begin acquisition.
20. Press [Serial] front panel key; then press Lister softkey.
21. Press Scroll Lister softkey; then use Entry knob to review
all 500 captured frames in the list.
Capturing 500 consecutive CAN frames with
ID = 07F using segmented memory
Segmented memory optimizes oscilloscope acquisition
memory to capture only those events that satisfy the
scope’s trigger condition.
With hardware-based decoding, this scope quickly detects
the occurrence of infrequent CAN error frames. Note that it
is also very easy to demonstrate other serial bus protocols.
Simply select the desired Serial bus training signal, then
press the Auto Setup softkey

1. Press [Default Setup] front panel key.
2. Press the [Help] front panel key.
3. Press the Training Signals softkey; then select the Runt
Pulses from the list using the Entry knob.
4. Press the Output softkey to enable this output signal.
5. Set Channel-1 to 500 mV/div with +1.7V offset using front
panel Channel-1 knobs.
6. Press the Trigger Level knob to set triggering at 50% of the
signal amplitude.
7. Press [Run/Stop] front panel key.
8. Press [Search] front panel key; then select Runt from the
list using the Entry knob.
Parametric violation search
The white triangles at the top of the display indicate the
location of each “found” runt pulse. Let’s now navigate to
each runt and take a closer look at each one..
9. Set timebase to 200.0 ns/div using Horizontal scale
knob.
10. Press the [◄] and [►] front panel navigation buttons to
automatically navigate to each positive “runt” pulse.
11. Press the Copy softkey; then press Copy to Trigger.
12. Press the Horizontal position knob to set offset to
0 seconds.
13. Press [Run/Stop] to begin repetitive acquisitions again.
Parametric violation triggering
Let’s now trigger on these “runts” using the scope’s
automatic “Copy Search to Trigger” feature..
The scope is now triggering on two different positive runt
pulses of different widths as shown in the screen image
above. Let’s now use the scope’s segmented memory acqui-
sition mode to efficiently capture 1,000 occurrences of these
positive runt pulses into memory.
Capturing consecutive runt pulses using
segmented memory
14. Press the [Acquire] front panel key.
15. Press the Segmented softkey; then select the # of
segments = 1000 using the Entry knob.
16. Press Segmented softkey to begin acquisition.
17. Press the Current Seg softkey; then use Entry knob to
review all 1000 captured segments that each contain a
runt pulse.
Segmented memory optimizes oscilloscope acquisition
memory to capture only the events that satisfy the scope’s
trigger condition, in this case runt pulses.
