Re: Trigger Source - Internal Signal Generator

Hi Neil, Thanks for confirming. Would be great to see this added as a feature, so hardware channel isn't taken just to sync with anyway already internally generated signal - very useful in quite a few instances like viewing modulated signals for example - typical case would be Class-D amplifier outp...

Trigger Source - Internal Signal Generator

Hello,

Is it possible to trigger the scope internally from the built in signal gen without obviously using a physical channel? Would be very useful, but I don't see anything in the trigger menu, just trigger to a channel - am I missing something?

Thank you.

Re: Amplifier Wattage/power Calculation

Hi Gerry, Now that you said it, I realise the wording of the very first question in this topic was wrong, probably leading to the long discussion re accuracy. What I hope was clear from my last post is, that what we're looking for is not measured, but rather calculated power (as title actually sugge...

Re: Amplifier Wattage/power Calculation

Hi Gerry, sorry for bringing this one up again, but I was just looking for the same answer and was surprised this one was left unanswered, as I think is a very good question. As to why one would want to do that - I test audio amps on daily basis and my soak testing setup is with 2204A - although I'm...
