Scope and Multimeter Operations Using the Scope Module Remotely

NOTE:

i If the Scope Module:

○ Is undocked from the Diagnostic Tool when it is on, or

○ Is exposed to a electro static discharge (ESD) while it is being used remotely

the following will occur:

• Communication between the Diagnostic Tool and the Scope Module will be terminated.

• All current data and settings will be lost.

• An error message (e.g. Meter/Scope Not Found) will display to indicate that

Scope Module communication has terminated.

When communication is reestablished (after a communication loss), the Scope Multimeter

application is restarted and the Scope Multimeter main menu page is displayed.

NOTE:

i When the Scope Module is connected to it’s docking station or is connected to the Diagnostic Tool

with a USB cable remotely, the Scope Module USB connection status indicator (lower right of

screen) is displayed. When the Scope Module is removed from the docking station, and is not

connected by a USB cable the status indicator is not displayed.
