operations, filters, and point-by-point editing or draw a waveform with
a mouse. Transfer waveforms to WaveStation over USB and view it
on the large display. Additionally, connecting a WaveAce oscilloscope
to the same PC enables seamless transfer of real world signals from
oscilloscope to the WaveStation.
