Finding your way around PicoScope

The drop-down menus and toolbars of the PicoScope display will be familiar to all users
of Windows software.
The Automotive drop-down menu in the menu bar is an important feature of the
Automotive software.
This menu displays a selection of the common measurements that can be taken using the
Automotive Kit. When you select one of the measurement options from the menu,
PicoScope will automatically:
 Load a sample waveform appropriate to the
chosen measurement
 Change its settings to the defaults for the chosen
measurement
 Display a help page with information on the
accessories needed to take the measurement,
setting up the equipment, example captured
waveforms and any additional technical
information that may be useful.
The top tool bar gives you all the frequently used
controls for the oscilloscope. Both channels are
controlled by the timebase menus:
The timebase menus control the amount of time that the trace takes to travel
horizontally across one square on the grid. The first control selects the amount of time
taken to travel through one square when the horizontal zoom factor is set to x1. The
second control selects the horizontal zoom factor.
The PicoScope 4423 PC Oscilloscope has four channels: A, B, C and D. Each channel is
controlled by its own set of controls in the top toolbar:
