Waveform Monitor
The WFM6120 measurement and monitoring waveform monitor provides precision capabilities such as Patented See and Solve™ displays, Digital Data Analysis, CaptureVu, Physical Layer measurement, and A/V Delay monitoring, making Tektronix the brand of choice for all measurement and monitoring needs that require signal analysis and unquestionable accuracy.
The WFM6120 provides flexible options and field-installable upgrade kits to allow you to make a smooth transition from analog to standard definition (SD-SDI). Standard SD-SDI support and available Composite Analog video allow monitoring display modes of Waveform, Vector, Gamut, Timing, and Status. Optional Analog and Digital audio monitoring can be added to the instrument to provide a variety of audio level displays and audio loudness monitoring. Sophisticated measurement and analysis functions are available, such as physical layer eye and jitter display, data analysis, and A/V Delay measurement. For complete details regarding option and feature availability, please refer to the section of this document on ordering information.
