Its precise displays provide high-quality monitoring for traditional analog composite (PAL and NTSC) or component systems. This instrument supports four analog composite signal inputs with waveform, vector, SCH, and picture functions. [. . . ] The error log captures up to 10, 000 events and can be easily downloaded using a web browser. The freeze function on the 1741C allows comparing of the frozen display to the live signal, facilitating tasks such as reference setting. A bitmap of the display can be downloaded using a web browser for easy documentation. With 32 user-configurable presets, operators can recall commonly used configurations for faster setup of the 1741C. Ease of Use The Intuitive User Interface provides backlit buttons. 32 user-configurable presets allow users to recall commonly used configurations tailored to your personal work practices. For remote operation, the Ground-closure Interface allows for remote selection of input or preset recall. The error log can be downloaded using a web browser. 2 www. tektronix. com Analog Dual-Standard Waveform Monitor -- 1741C The Line Select provides a line marker in full-screen and thumbnail picture modes. With the time and voltage cursors in the waveform display, users can easily reference points or measure values. Users can also define labels to quickly identify the input sources active on the waveform display. Vector Display The vector display is offered with selectable 75% and 100% targets. Each display automatically selects the appropriate graticule based on the input format. The vector display offers user-selectable graticules. Analog Video Multiformat Support For a qualitative view of the content, a full-color picture display is offered, which can be displayed as a full-screen presentation. This display is compatible with PAL and NTSC inputs with format auto-sensing. Sharp Waveform Display ­ Clear Measurements Tektronix displays offer the sharpest CRT-like trace quality for clear waveform monitoring without pixelation distortions. With several sweep rates and easy control of vertical gain and horizontal magnification, you can efficiently monitor and measure video waveform parameters. Full horizontal timing flexibility is provided with 1Line, 2Line, 1Field, and 2Field sweep modes, with or without magnification.
