fluke style on a scope posible?
« on: December 09, 2016, 06:41:55 pm »
Hi All,

My first post here.

I'm an Electrical Engineer try to become an Electronics Engineer by self study. :box:
Learnd A LOT here and today I actualy solved a cable (150 meters) error at work with my DIY TDR
from w2aew on my realy nice home made PCB....but now a need a help/hint.

my Fluke FC3000A Current clamp, that realy sucks, gives me a really nice pic

and my to 1104 upgraded Rigol that I really like give only AC Waves with my current clamps. (Chinees Hantec) and that sucks.
and the waves that sucks....

is it a setting  :-// or do i need a circuit to get the Rigol wavesgraph te  becomes like de the fluke graph... (stacked values)

thanks in advanced.

Mark

If you only need to see peak values rather than RMS you could probably put the scope in "peak detect" mode or similar and use a slow timebase, and just look at the top or bottom "boundary"

Well I tried a bridge rectifier to make the signal dc that worked only now ...
the rectifier needs a bout 600 mV to open so my reading start also at 601 mV (its about 6 Amps AC)
so I mis the first 6 Amps....Is there a way to boost the ac voltage 10 times...so Ill have 6000mV.
than I will step down 10 times in the dc circuit.

for measuring Mains its not need to exact. 0,5 amps is fine in a range 0 to 100 amps.

Thanks
