1.1 Product Overview and Features
Recording various analog
signals
Measurements are
provided in combina-
tion with optional input
modules, cables and clamp
probes depending on the
application.
Voltage, Current, Tempera-
ture, Acceleration, Vibra-
tion, Frequency, Stress, etc.
Automatic and manual saving, loading
and file management of measurement
data (⇒ p. 65)
Data saving and loading are available with optional PC
Cards. Also, using optional proprietary drives, saving
and loading can be performed on floppy diskettes, MO
or hard disk. Data on storage media can be managed
with this instrument.
"Chapter 10 Saving/Loading Data & Managing Files" in
the Instruction Manual
Memory capacity can be expanded with optional mem-
ory boards. (This option must be specified when order-
ing.) 8860: 32 Megawords to 1 Gigaword, Model 8861:
64 Megawords to 2 Gigawords
Automatic and manual
printing of measurement
data (⇒ p. 75)
Measurement data can be printed
with the optional A4 or A6 internal
printer and special recording pa-
per. Printing is also available on
an external USB printer.

Instruction Manual
Recording logic signals
Measures using optional logic
probes.
Mixed analog and
logic recording is
possible.
Remote control and data collection
The instrument can be connected to a PC for measure-
ment data analysis and remote control.
