Hello,

Link below is 2281S user manual:

Page 185 of the manual shows how to go about Importing a list from an external USB flash drive.

Page 214 of the manual shows steps required for Simulating a battery.

Hello,

I don’t personally have much experience scripting with Matlab, but we do offer some sample/example/demo scripts on the Tektronix forums and Github pages. I would suggest referencing these or even building your code from these examples. The ‘simple plot’ script and demo video discuss how to collect data from the scope and then plot that data, similar to what you are requesting.

Hello,

You can change the file format of the waveform by going into the File Details page of the Save Waveform menu. On the side of this page, you will see the options for .isf or ,csv. Push the button next to .csv so it is highlighted and then push the button next to OK Save. To convert your .isf files into .csv files, you can recall them using the Recall Waveform menu and then re-save them.

Hello,

The AFG31021 alone will not meet your requirement as neither a two channel model or feature differential output. If you have access to a second AFG31XX1 you can use the Multi-Unit Sync functionality to create the needed waveform. You can find information about Multi-Unit Sync starting on page 50 (PDF page 72) of the user manual.

The second option would be to use an AFG31XX2 model. This would allow you to create a waveform in channel 1, and then set channel 2 as the compliment.

Hi, KickStart is a great place to start for this: https://www.tek.com/en/products/keithley/keithley-control-software-bench-instruments/kickstart

Hello,

The TBS2024B has a VPI power limit of 24 W across the 4 channels.

TCP0020 draw 4 W, you can use 4 of them at once.

TCP0030 draw 8.4 W, you would be limited to two.

You can refer to the TekVPI power Requirement info at https://www.tek.com/en/documents/technical-brief/tekvpi-probe-power-requirements-digital-phosphor-oscilloscopes

The TBS2000B series has the same spec as the TBS2000 series that is listed in the document.

Hello,

For RS-485 you will likely want a differential probe such as the TDP0500: https://www.tek.com/en/datasheet/1-ghz-and-500-mhz-high-voltage-differential-probes

As always, look through the datasheet and make sure that the TDP0500 will work for your specific bus differential and common mode voltages. The bus setup on-scope will be very similar to the RS-232 setup, but with different voltage thresholds. Other parameters in the bus decode menu on the scope are not necessarily standardized, so you will need to know what your specific RS485 bus is in order to select the correct settings.

Hello,

To set the scope to wait for a trigger event and capture a single pulse press the Single button on the front panel.

You may also want to try setting the trigger to normal instead of auto. To do this open the Trigger Menu > More > Mode > Normal. This will prevent the scope form automatically triggering and to wait for a trigger condition.
