The WaveAce combines long memory, a wide screen display, extensive measurement capabilities, advanced triggering and great connectivity to improve trouble shooting and shorten debug time.
With 32 automatic measurements standard, the WaveAce simplifies how measurements are made. The large 7" widescreen display can show up to five measurements without crowding the waveform display, or show all 32 at once with the measurement dashboard. A wide range of advanced timing parameters provide insight to the relationship between signals on two different channels. WaveAce oscilloscopes provide five math functions for additional analysis including Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide and FFT. The FFT can be viewed using four different windows and two different vertical scales for a flexible view of the frequency domain. Built-in pass/fail mask testing allows for quick identification of problems and highlights when they have occurred.
Saving and recalling waveforms and setups from internal memory can significantly shorten test and debug time. Many oscilloscopes do not provide enough internal storage space, forcing the user to rely on external USB storage. The WaveAce has internal storage to save up to 20 waveforms, 20 setups and two reference waveforms.
All WaveAce models provide a USB host port on the front panel for saving screen images, waveforms and setups to a memory stick. A rear panel USB device port allows for connection to a PC or printer. Connecting and communicating with a PC is simplified with the LeCroy WaveStudio software that provides full access to the oscilloscope display, measurement, waveform data and front panel controls.
The high performance and large feature set of the WaveAce is controlled by an intuitive user interface with 11 different languages and a streamlined front panel. All important controls and menus are accessed from the front panel with a single button press. All position and offsets can be reset by simply pressing the corresponding knob. Pressing the V/Div knob will switch between fixed and variable gain, and pressing the T/div knob will toggle between zoom modes. Buttons on the front panel that open and close menus or switch modes, are backlit so that the mode of operation is easily visible to the user.
