Oscilloscopes
that are communications experts…
Once the screen of the oscilloscope is up,
communications are operative between the
unit and the user, who chooses both its mode
and its control style.
Mode:
The complex functions may be “hidden”.
Easily accessed using “Advanced Mode”,
they do not disrupt navigation or analysis in
standard mode.
Style:
1 - In “keyboard” use, you achieve record efficiency with twenty keys and the encoder enabling direct access and adjustments on a very
simplified front panel.
Furthermore, on-line help is available at all
times, for each function, and in five languages
using the key.
2 - Using the mouse, you pull down menus in
a windows-like users-friendly environment.
Oscilloscopes are high-performance instruments, are reputed as hard to access for
beginners or occasional users. Thanks to
“Windows-like” ergonomics and its universal
operationnal mode, unique for this category
of instrument, use of the MTX 3252, MTX
3352 & MTX 3354 is particularly accessible.
The mouse is used to pull down the menus
and navigate with ease; it is also used for
direct and effective action on the graphic elements (cursors, trigger, trace position...).
Cursors may be placed at any time on the
signals to make measurements that are as
accurate as they are varied, such as, for
example, the phase shift between two
signals. “Magnetised” to the curve, the encoder or the mouse moves them in one horizontal movement.
Veritable lists of available functions, the
menus are also used as learning tools and the
“Pop-Up” windows present all of the adjustments at a glance.
The MTX 3252 and 3352 come with a 230
kbaud RS232 connection and Centronics
interface as standard. Both of these features
are necessary for communication with a PC
or printer. The standard MTX 3354 has a
115.2 kbaud RS232 connection, Centronics
interface and USB connection.
The Ethernet communication interface
ensures rapid, smooth communication via a
network. The entire range comes with integrated HTML server, while only the MTX 3354
has an Ethernet interface as standard (optional for the other models).
The files generated use the Windows environment with their standard formats: .gif, .pcl,
.txt, .bmp, .eps, .prn etc. It is possible to save
in the files system of the instrument, to print
them or export them directly to a PC for analysis using Windows applications (reports,
spreadsheet, printable files, images, etc).
A state--the-art device, the Ethernet network interface and the HTML server can be
used for further enhancements (options):
Using only the Ethernet address of the unit,
with no additional software, the user can take
charge of the oscilloscope(s) installed in the
network. This can solve certain remote management problems in industrial environments,
but also in teaching. Displaying these signals,
controlling the instrument, sending messages
to the different users, downloading curves,
results or configurations. All operations and
manipulations are accessible remotely, still
with 100% “Windows” compatibility.
Lightweight, compact and fitted with a
handle, the instruments can also accompany
professionals who need to move around as
part of their jobs. A “field
pack” can even be used
for measurements and
handling of the oscilloscope without removing it from its carrying bag.
MTX 3252, MTX 3352 MTX 3354:
60, 100 and 150 MHz analyzers-oscilloscopes
Windows Like environment:
guaranteed compatibility
and distance abolished!
The exceptional vertical dynamic, ranging
from 2.5 mV to 100 V per division is combined
with scaling on channels with reading and
physical unity of the signal, and an effective
“Autoset” function that can be selected per
channel.
The mathematics editor is used display for
real-time on screen of the result of 4 customi-
sed functions using acquired signals or in
complete simulation.
Thanks to a 50,000 count memory
depth, a reference in this category,
and to a unique horizontal and ver-
tical trace zoom, with factor enlar-
gement up to 200, what we see on
display are always real acquisition
points. The Full Trace function
enables the screen to be divided
in 2 and legibility of curves to be
optimised. The user can obtain
display of multiple traces without
overwriting.
The MTX 3252 & MTX 3352, equipped with a
memory depth that is 20 times’ superior to
that of any other oscilloscope, recording time
is 20 times’ longer than ever before and sampling frequency is 20 times higher, in other
words, these instruments provide greater
resolution that fully exploits the time base
(1 ns to 200 s per division and up to 50 Ge/s).
The MTX 3354 goes even further to provide
100Ge/s repetitive sampling, and up to
200 Me/s in single-shot (2 channels). This
model also stands out thanks to more accurate vertical resolution (10 bits).
The window of automatic measurements
displays simultaneously the 19 parameters of
the signal. For accurate and unambiguous
analysis, 2 markers display the portion of the
signal on which the first automatic measurement selected was performed; you can then
select another zone by framing it with the
manual cursors.
The fast comparison of two signals could
not be simpler: after pressing the key
you compare directly the 2 traces and by
checking “reference difference” you measure
the differences of all the new signal's 19 parameters.
MTX 3252, MTX 3352 MTX 3354:
60, 100 and 150 MHz analyzers-oscilloscopes
Performance accessible to everyone
For greater simplicity and considerable timesaving, the user can define 2 automatic measurements (to be chosen from among 19).
The upgraded activation modes of the MTX 3354: unprecedented!
Pulse, activation on pulse width
Activation becomes effective on the
end edge of the pulse when its width
corresponds to the selected comparison
criteria (e.g. width < 25 µs).
Delay, activation on edges with retarder
The user indicates the duration of the required delay, which is activated by the auxiliary
source. Activation occurs on the following
event of the main source after the end of the
selected duration.
TV, activation on a TV signal
The MTX 3354 enables activation on a
specific line number, for 625 lines
(SECAM) or 525 lines (PAL).
Metering, activation on edge with event
metering
The user enters the number of events. At the
end of this metering, activated by the auxiliary source, activation becomes effective
during the following event of the principal
source.
Originally designedl for displaying signals,
the oscilloscope has become a veritable
analytical tool.
Thus, the MTX 3354, MTX 3352 & MTX
3252 are capable of real time FFT and multichannel analysis of the signal.
For users working more in the electrical
engineering field, the analysis of 31 order
multichannel harmonics is proposed as an
option.
Finally, for all those who monitor the
variations of physical or mechanical
phenomena over time, a veritable fast
digital logger can be integrated into
the instrument, in the form of a software
module.
MTX 3252, MTX 3352 & MTX 3354 :
60, 100 and 150 MHz analyzer-oscilloscopes!
Integrated instruments
for a "global" tool
The brand new MTX 3354 has classic edge activation (Principal) with adjustable parameters, just like any other oscilloscope. Although up to this,
the user is in familiar territory, he will discover, in the “activation” menu, unprecedented possibilities for this category of instruments.
5 activation modes are presented in tabs :
Mains
Activation occurs on rising and falling edges,
as selected by the user, and enables an
image of the instrument’s supply voltage to
be obtained.
As well as these various parametering modes,
Holdoff is available for the majority of these
activation modes. This function enables the
signal to the stabilised by inhibiting activation
during a duration defined by the user.

The MTX 3240 is also a rational investment
for it is also a 100 MHz frequency meter
(Cat. I, 300 V), which means that it is not necessary to purchase an instrument for occasional use.
And in order to meet the user's requirements
in terms of automated systems in an economical way, a 100% programmable version

Accessories and information for ordering
Another advantage of these innovations: complete functionality. The MTX 3240's combined
functions enable autonomous operation which means that, when simply testing settings, one
can avoid the systematic use of an oscilloscope or multimeter.
MTX 3240 with built-in
frequency meter
Like the generator of the same family, the
MTX multimeter is an exceptional, multifunctional device. Thanks to its signal analysis,
there is no need for the user to use other
instruments (an oscilloscope for example)
when verifying made measurements.
Impossible to make errors, which are so frequent and yet often ignored, due to very
high crest factor. In fact, the MTX 3250
measures rapid peaks at 500 µs non-stop
and lets you know when it finds a fault.
Better still, when “AUTO PEAK” Mode is
validated, the multimeter automatically
switches to the range best suited to the type
of signal measured. Since crest factor is
displayed, one can also make an initial
quantitative diagnosis on signals.
The MTX 3250 is a rational investment
for it is also a frequency meter, a thermometer and even a logger, which
means that it is not necessary to purchase instruments that one doesn't use
that often. Also for recording up to
4 channels and 12 parameters in the
laboratory, the “data logger” version of
this multi-purpose instrument offer high-
performance service with its associated
PC software.
Temperature is measured directly starting
from Pt 100 or Pt 1000, and in the same
way that frequency is measured, up to 1
MHz, with period and duty cycle.
And in order to better meet the users'
expectations of automated systems, a
100% programmable version of this instrument exists via a SCPI-compatible, RS232
optical link at 57,600 bauds.

Efficiency displayed with elegance
The MTX family’s appealing and modern design, which is especially compact, will fit
perfectly into your workspace.
Placed directly on a counter top, their design leaves great room in front of
them. Their height has been calculated so they fit nicely in half-shelf
spaces. Having a standard length and not very deep, they can be placed
on top of another instrument.
Since they have a built-in handle and are
light in weight, these instruments are
easy to displace and carry.
An attractive structure
and a shape that makes room
Even at a distance or in poor light (sun, neon), the measurements are perfectly readable,
perfectly legible thanks to its large (50 x 140 mm), dark background display and
adjustable led-matrix backlighting as well as the exceptional height of the main display
of 20 mm (MTX 3240 and MTX 3250).
The very attractive adjustable LCD screen of the MTX 3352 and MTX 3252 is available
in monochrome and colour versions, with also excellent legibility.
Situated on the front panel, the operations zones of the whole MTX Compact
famitly are large, coherent, and organized; and the measurement connections are
easily accessible.
On the generator and multimeter, primary functions are selected directly with
keys that are marked with their function and a led. A high-performance encoder
makes it possible to make settings, and contextual keys located at the edge of the
screen clearly show the configuration.
In addition to direct access via the keyboard, the oscilloscope is also controlled via the mouse,
under a “Windows-like” environment, facilitating learning. Unprecedented in this device
category.
A leader in technology,
innovative to the fingertips
A user-friendly, man-machine interface
with exceptional legibility
The qualities of the MTX do not limit themselves to their looks.
With the latest 16 or 32-bit microprocessors,
a downloadable software and a 100% digital
calibration, these instruments are smart too.
As for safety, a resettable electronic protection eliminates the need for the mains fuse on
certain models.
All the models in the MTX Compact family
can be fitted with high-performance commu-
nications interfaces and communica-
tion standard SCPI.
Even the selection keyboard is the
latest in technology with its
microswitch contacts that have
an exceptionally long life span:
more than 100,000 maneuvers.
The markings on the keys are
made with permanent laser engraving.
With the MTX family, Metrix makes it possible
for each professional to access instruments
which are the best of the best.
