Fluke 190-104, Fluke 190-204 Users Manual Using Mathematics Functions +, -, x, XY-mode You can add (+), subtract (-), or multiply (x) two waveforms. The test tool will display the mathematical result waveform and the source waveforms. The XY-mode provides a plot with one input on the vertical axis and the second input on the horizontal axis.
PAGE 39
Using the Scope and Meter Acquiring Waveforms Using Mathematics Function Spectrum (FFT) 3 ENTER The Spectrum function shows the spectral content of the input A, B, C or D waveform in the input trace color. It performs an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) to transform the amplitude waveform from the time domain into the frequency domain. To reduce the effect of side-lobes (leakage) it is recommended to use Auto windowing.
PAGE 40
Fluke 190-104, Fluke 190-204 Users Manual If it displays WRONG TB the time base setting does not enable the test tool to display an FFT result. It is either too slow, which can result in aliasing, or too fast, which results in less than one signal period on the screen. 7 F1 Perform a spectrum analysis on trace A, B, C or D. 8 F2 Set the horizontal amplitude scale to linear or logarithmic. 8 F3 Set the vertical amplitude scale to linear or logarithmic.

PAGE 49
Using The Recorder Functions Recording Scope Waveforms In Deep Memory (Scope Record) 2 Recording Scope Waveforms In Deep Memory (Scope Record) The SCOPE RECORD function is a roll mode that logs a long waveform of each active input. This function can be used to monitor waveforms like motion control signals or the power-on event of an Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). During recording, fast transients are captured. Because of the deep memory, recording can be done for more than one day.
PAGE 50
Fluke 190-104, Fluke 190-204 Users Manual Displaying Recorded Data Using Scope Record in Single Sweep Mode In Normal view, the samples that roll off the screen are stored in deep memory. When the memory is full, recording continues by shifting the data in memory and deleting the first samples out of memory. Use the recorder Single Sweep function to automatically stop recording when the deep memory is full. In View All mode, the complete memory contents are displayed on the screen.

Chapter 4 Triggering on Waveforms About this Chapter • This chapter provides an introduction to the trigger functions of the test tool. Triggering tells the test tool when to begin displaying the waveform. You can use fully automatic triggering, take control of one or more main trigger functions (semi-automatic triggering), or you can use dedicated trigger functions to capture special waveforms.
PAGE 62
Fluke 190-104, Fluke 190-204 Users Manual Setting Trigger Level and Slope The Connect-and-View™ function enables hands-off triggering to display complex unknown signals. When your test tool is in manual range, do the following: MANUAL AUTO Perform an auto set. AUTO appears at the top right of the screen. Automatic triggering assures a stable display of virtually any signal. From this point, you can take over the basic trigger controls such as level, slope and delay.
PAGE 63
Triggering on Waveforms Using Trigger Delay or Pre-trigger Using Trigger Delay or Pre-trigger You can begin to display the waveform some time before or after the trigger point has been detected. Initially, you have a half screen (6 divisions) of pre-trigger view (negative delay). 4 When a valid trigger signal is found, the trigger key will be lit and the trigger parameters appear in black. When no trigger is found, the trigger parameters appear in gray, ands the key light will be off.
PAGE 64
Fluke 190-104, Fluke 190-204 Users Manual Automatic Trigger Options In the trigger menu, settings for automatic triggering can be changed as follows. (See also Chapter 1: “Displaying an Unknown Signal with Connect-and-View”) 1 TRIGGER Display the TRIGGER key labels. Note The TRIGGER key labels can differ depending on the latest trigger function used. 2 Open the TRIGGER OPTIONS menu. F4 3 Open the AUTOMATIC TRIGGER menu.
PAGE 65
Triggering on Waveforms Triggering on Edges Triggering on Edges If the signal is unstable or has a very low frequency, use edge triggering to obtain full manual trigger control. To trigger on rising edges of the input A waveform, do the following: 1 2 TRIGGER F4 When Free Run is selected, the test tool updates the screen even if there are no triggers. A trace always appears on the screen. When On Trigger is selected, the test tool needs a trigger to display a waveform.
PAGE 66
Fluke 190-104, Fluke 190-204 Users Manual Triggering on Noisy Waveforms To reduce jitter on the screen when triggering on noisy waveforms, you can use a trigger filter. Continue from step 3 of the previous example as follows: 4 ENTER 5 ENTER Select On Trigger, jump to Trigger Filter. Set Noise Reject or HF Reject to On. This is indicated by a taller trigger icon . When Noise Reject is on, an increased trigger gap will be applied.
PAGE 67
Triggering on Waveforms Triggering on Edges N-Cycle Triggering N-Cycle triggering enables you to create a stable picture of for example n-cycle burst waveforms. Each next trigger is generated after the waveform has crossed the trigger level N times in the direction that complies with the selected trigger slope. 7 Set the number of cycles N 8 Adjust the trigger level 4 Traces with N-Cycle triggering (N=2) and without N-Cycle triggering are shown in Figure 26.

PAGE 71
Triggering on Waveforms Triggering on Pulses Tip The test tool stores all triggered screens in the replay memory. For example, if you setup your triggering for glitches, you can capture 100 glitches with time stamps. Use the REPLAY key to look at all the stored glitches. 4 Finding Missing Pulses The next example covers finding missing pulses in a train of positive pulses. In this example it is assumed that the pulses have a 100 ms distance between the rising edges.

Appendix A Installing USB Drivers Introduction The Fluke 190 Series II ScopeMeter comes with a USB interface (connector: USB type “B mini”) for communication with a computer. To be able to communicate with the instrument, drivers need to be loaded onto the computer. This document describes how to install the drivers on a Windows XP computer. Installing on other Windows versions will be similar.
PAGE 132
PAGE 133
Appendices Installing USB Drivers A Installing the USB Drivers To install the USB drivers, do the following: 1 Connect the Fluke 190 Series II instrument to the PC. The USB cable can be plugged in and out (hot-swap) when both the computer and the instrument are on. It is not required to power off. When there is no driver loaded for the Fluke 190 Series II instrument, Windows will show that there is New Hardware detected, and the Wizard for installing new hardware will open.
PAGE 134
Fluke 190-104, Fluke190-204 Users Manual 2 In the following window click ‘Next’ to install the software automatically. Windows will download the drivers automatically from the Windows Driver Distribution Center on the internet. If there is no connection to the internet, you need to load the CD-ROM, supplied with the ScopeMeter, which contains the drivers. 3 Follow the instructions on screen. When the driver has finished installation click ‘Finish’ to complete the first step of the driver installation.
PAGE 135
Appendices Installing USB Drivers 4 A After completing the first step the New Hardware Wizard will start again to install the USB Serial Port Driver. Click ‘Next’ to install the software automatically. Windows will download the drivers automatically from the Windows Driver Distribution Center on the internet. If there is no connection to the internet, you need to load the CD-ROM, supplied with the ScopeMeter, which contains the drivers. 5 Follow the instructions on screen.
PAGE 136
Fluke 190-104, Fluke190-204 Users Manual 6 To check if the drivers are loaded properly, connect the ScopeMeter 190 Series II to your computer and open the Device Manager. (See the Help file of your computer how to open the device manager for your Windows version) From the device manager click on the + sign to Expand the ‘Universal Serial Bus controllers’. The ‘Fluke 190 ScopeMeter’ should be listed here.
PAGE 137
Appendices Installing USB Drivers A Notes 1) Sometimes application software may require a different port number. (for example in the range Com 1..4). In this situation the COM port number can be changed manually. To manually assign a different COM port number right click on ‘Fluke USB Serial Port COM(5)’ and select properties. From the Properties menu, select the Port Settings tab, and click ‘Advanced…’ to change the port number.
