Hey all,
This is my first time on this forum, so please forgive if I managed to overlook some obvious details/failed to find that this question has already been asked/Am posting in the wrong place!
I am currently studying electronics, and through a friend of a friend of my parents (I live in a small town
) I was able to purchase my first oscilloscope, a PM3394 200MHz Oscilloscope, 4 channels with both an analog and digital mode! It was unopened, in original packaging, and because I live in the rural area of a small country where getting your hands on cheap test equipment is rather difficult, it was a deal I could hardly pass up!
The Oscilloscope passes the self-test, and I have not been able to find any flaws in the few days I have been using it. Overall I am very happy with it.
However the waveform memory is fairly limited with 8k on one channel, or less if more channels are recorded. While reading the manual (
http://exodus.poly.edu/~kurt/manuals/manuals/Fluke/FLUKE_PM33XXSeries_OM_66.pdf) I noticed that there are 3 options to this oscilloscope:
A Math+ option which adds more math functions,
A 32k option which adds more memory
and A IEEE-488.2 interface option.
According to the self test, none of these are installed. I would only really have a use for the Math and of course the more memory function, as the RS232 interface is all I need. However, the manual provides very limited information on these upgrades. I do not know if they are hardware/software upgrades, here is all I was able to gather:
The IEEE interface option is a factory install
There is a manual for the Math+ option separately, although I have not been able to find it.
Now my question: Does anybody know anything about these upgrades? Where they factory installed or could they be purchased seperatly? Does anybody have the manual for math+? And most importantly, do I have any chance of getting these upgrades so long after the oscilloscope has been release?
Thank you all for your help, and sorry again if I managed to screw something up!
