WiFi connected

Using a computer based oscilloscope was never easier than with the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG: simply switch it on and start the software on the computer:

  • no power cables required as it is battery powered and can operate hours on a fully charged battery
  • no interface cables required as it uses WiFi to connect to the computer

This allows you to measure fully floating, fully isolated from your computer. The Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG can be placed near any test subject that may be hard to reach, or on moving objects, where wired connections are not possible.

Because the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG is not connected to the computer, there is no risk of damaging the computer.

LAN connected

When measuring in remote locations where a wired network is available, the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG can also be used through its LAN port. Measurements can then be performed from any location via the network, without having the computer to be close to the test subject.

Using its 1 Gbit LAN connection, the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG can achieve higher streaming performance than via WiFi.

LAN

USB 3.0 connected

When wireless measuring or LAN connected measuring is not required or not possible, the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG can also be connected via its USB3 port. This gives the benefit of even higher streaming performance. Additionally, when connected via USB, the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG can be combined with oscilloscopes via its CMI interface.

USB

View all ways to connect

This powerful automotive WiFi oscilloscope combines fast sampling up to 1 GSa/s with high resolutions of 12, 14 and 16 bit and a large memory of 64 Mpoints per channel with four differential channels. Additionally, the automotive WiFi oscilloscope supports continuous streaming measurements up to 200 MSa/s.

The Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG is delivered with SureConnect connection test and resistance measurement on each channel.

Also, the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG is delivered with SafeGround. With SafeGround you can switch the differential inputs of the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG into single ended inputs with ground protection. It allows to make measurements using standard attenuating probes or standard shielded measure leads and protects the scope when a short circuit to ground is created.

Rugged industrial design

The Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG features a rugged design. Its enclosure is fitted with rubber protectors at the front and the rear. These protect the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG against damage by mechanical shocks. The rubber helps absorbing shocks and protects the connectors at the front and the rear of the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG, these fall within the protected zone.

Additionally, the rubber prevents your Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG from sliding. The rubber protectors have special notches that simplify stacking instruments. Holes are included that allow to connect a strap to hang the instrument near the test subject.

Safe measuring

The Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG is a four channel automotive oscilloscope with differential inputs. With the differential inputs it is possible to measure four totally unrelated signals simultaneously. It is no longer possible to create a short circuit through the oscilloscope or through a second device connected to your computer and to the car, like e.g. a fault code scanner. So no risk of damaging the car, the oscilloscope or the computer.

Diff input

Differential / single ended switchable inputs with SafeGround protection

SafeGround gives the possibility to use the oscilloscope inputs both as single ended and as differential. When SafeGround is active and you accidentally create a wrong connection that causes a short circuit, SafeGround will disconnect the ground of the input channel without damaging the oscilloscope or PC. You can therefore simply switch from a differential input to a single ended input without worrying if anything will damage because of a short circuit current. The Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG is the only automotive oscilloscope in the world with this unique SafeGround protection. And as you all know, a connection mistake is easily made, which will now have no more strange and financial consequences because of SafeGround as the short circuit current is limited thanks to SafeGround.

SafeGround is default available on each channel of the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG.

SureConnect

The SureConnect connection test feature of the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG tells you immediately whether your test probe or clip actually makes electrical contact or not. No more doubt whether your probe doesn't make contact or there really is no signal.

This is useful when surfaces are oxidized and your probe cannot get a good electrical contact. Simply activate the SureConnect and you know whether there is contact or not. Also when back probing connectors in confined places, SureConnect immediately shows whether the probes make contact or not.

SureConnect is default available on each channel of the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG.

Resistance measurement

Many automotive sensors are based on variable resistors. Use your Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG in the resistance setting to test them, no more need to take a separate ohm meter. Resistance values can be displayed as a number, but it is also possible to display the resistance variation in time, in a graph.

The unique Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG Ohm scope is the first fast automotive Ohm scope in its class.

Potmeter testing

Large memory

When measuring at high sample rates, a large memory is necessary to be able to record a complete signal in the acquisition buffer. Where most oscilloscopes have 2.5 kpoints or 100 kpoints memory, the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG has up to 256 Mpoints memory per channel. An advantage of a large memory is that once-only fast phenomena can be captured accurately or complete serial communication signal blocks can be measured all at once.

High accuracy

The Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG measures with high resolutions of 14 and 16 bit. A signal measured with the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG therefore has 256 times more resolution than most standard automotive oscilloscopes, which usually have a low resolution of 8 or 9 bit. The input circuit of the Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG has a high accuracy of 0.25 % of the full scale input range, where most standard automotive oscilloscopes have an accuracy of 2 - 3 % of the full scale range. The precision Automotive Test Scope ATS610004DW-XMSG allows for measuring signals with much more accuracy.
