Multi Channel measurement software - Combining instruments

With the Multi Channel software, you are not limited to number of channels of one instrument. It is possible to combine two or more instruments to form a combined instrument. Once the instruments are combined, the resulting single instrument works just like a normal instrument. There is no limit to the number of channels in a combined instrument.

Combining is possible with the following instruments:

• Handyscope HS3 (from serial number 14266, older instruments need modification)
• Handyscope HS4
• Handyscope HS4 DIFF

You can create a combined instrument by selecting Create combined instrument... from the Instrument menu. Choose which instruments must be combined in the appearing dialog.

In the picture below, two Handyscope HS3's are combined to form a 4-channel measuring instrument. The Arbitrary Waveform Generators of the Handyscopes can still be used independantly.

Note: The instruments must be synchronized with a coupling cable attached to their extension connectors.
