Getting Started How to Start the Software

How to Start the Software

When you start the software, a warning message box may appear.

This happens due to the following reasons:

1. Four channel feature is supported only on DPO70000/B, DSA70000/B, and MSO70000 series

oscilloscopes having bandwidth greater than or equal to 4 GHz. For TDS series oscilloscopes,

only two channels are available and the other two channels are displayed as Not Conn.

2. Oscilloscope bandwidth is less than 4 GHz. For higher resolution HDMI signals, you need at least a

4 GHz oscilloscope. Your oscilloscope bandwidth is less than 4 GHz.

3. Maximum available record length for two channels is less than 16 M. For HDMI compliance

testing, you need at least a 16 M record length in two channels. This 16 M record length is installed in

the following oscilloscopes:

Option 4M a nd above in TDS series oscilloscopes

Option 2XL and above in DPO series oscilloscopes

If these options are not available (installed) in the oscilloscope, the software will run the Eye diagram

and Jitter measurements with the maximum available record length.

4. DDS method is supported only on DPO70000/B/C, DSA70000/B/C, and MSO70000/C series

oscilloscopes having bandwidth greater than or equal to 8 GHz.
