Documenting Your Work Using LabNotebook
The LabNotebook feature simplifies the way waveforms, screen captures,
and oscilloscope setup files are saved and documented. LabNotebook also
provides an easy way to recall your settings with the Flashback feature.
And it lets you create reports, showing your screen images, in pdf, html, or
rtf output formats.
LabNotebook entries are easily created by
selecting LabNotebook from the File menu,
then clicking the Create button.
Several annotation tools and colors are then
put at your disposal to mark up your
waveform. When you click Done, your mark-
ups and oscilloscope settings are saved
together in a database resident on the
instrument.
Click the Create Report button to generate a
hardcopy format that you can save to a
network drive or external media. Or click the
E-mail button to send the report to another
location. Use the Flashback feature at any
time to recall a Notebook entry, including
oscilloscope setup, for further study.

Ethernet port, and a network address is self-assigned.
If the network does have a firewall, your IT department can assist you in
connecting to the network using familiar Windows setup routines.
Because your oscilloscope runs on a Windows-based PC platform, it is wise
to protect it from viruses, as with any PC on a corporate network. It is
