Acquisition
When and why to turn on MagniVu
For the MSO5000B Series, MagniVu gives you higher resolution to accurately determine edge placement. This helps you
make precise timing measurements on digital edges. You can see up to 32 times more detail than with normal digital
channel sampling.
The MagniVu record is acquired in parallel to the main digital acquisition and is available at any time, running or stopped.
MagniVu provides an ultra high resolution view of your data sampled at a maximum resolution of 60.6 ps for 10,000 points
centered around the trigger.
NOTE.
MagniVu centers itself around the trigger point. If you turn MagniVu on while using a large record length and you are
looking somewhere other than the trigger point, then the digital signal may be off screen. In most of these cases, you can
fi
nd
the digital record by looking for the digital signal in the upper overview and panning accordingly.

Quick tips
If you think you need more timing resolution, turn on MagniVu to increase the resolution.
MagniVu is always acquired. If the oscilloscope is in a stopped state, turn on MagniVu and still get the resolution
without taking another acquisition.
