WaveScan Overview

WaveScan enables you to search for unusual events in a single capture, or
to scan for an event in many acquisitions over a long period of time. You
can select from more than 20 search modes (frequency, rise time, runt,
duty cycle, etc.), apply a search condition (slope, level, threshold,
hysteresis), and begin scanning in a post-acquisition environment. Since the
scanning modes are not simply copies of the hardware triggers, but
software triggers, the capability is much greater.

For instance, there is no frequency trigger in any oscilloscope, yet
WaveScan allows for quick frequency scans. You can accumulate a data set
of unusual events separated by hours or days, enabling faster debugging.
The events are time stamped, table indexed, and event rows can be
selected for individual viewing.

You can also set actions to occur automatically when unusual events are
found: stop the acquisition, emit an audible beep, output a pulse as shown
in Auxiliary Output Signals (on page 217), print the screen as shown in
Printing and Hardcopy Functions (on page 211), save waveforms as shown
in Saving and Recalling Waveforms (on page 203), or create a
LabNotebook™ entry as shown in My Lab Notebook Overivew (on page
196)
