Exposing some bugs on LeCroy’s new WaveStation 3162 and the HDO4024 oscilloscope.
Please cite this article as:Bug 1 (WS3162): When modulation is applied to a channel, the amplitude drops below the set value.
Bug 2 (WS3162): Phase control dysfunctional on both channels when modulation is applied to either one channel.
Bug 3 (HDO4024): Spectrum calculation locks up and slows the spectrum update down significantly if “Average” or “Max Hold” mode has been selected previously to switching into “normal” mode. FW: Version: 7.3.0.5 & 7.4.0.5
UPDATE (06/16/2014): Just 15 minutes after I published the video, Dan Payne (Director of Distribution, Teledyne LeCroy) writes this: “Thanks Sebastian – I’ll have the applications team look at it immediately – The video makes it a lot easier to see the application.”
