Pico Technology is 20 Years Old!

In our online library of videos, Frank Massey tells you all you need to know about the PicoScope automotive oscilloscope and automotive software. In addition to those mentioned last month, two more of the videos available to view online are detailed below. One covers the CAN bus, and Frank demonstrates the power of the PicoScope automotive oscilloscope, including the advanced zoom feature that lets you see every detail of the CAN bus waveform. In the second video, Frank demonstrates how you can quickly test your injectors using a PicoScope automotive oscilloscope. By simulating a faulty injector, Frank shows you how easy it is to tell if there is a problem or not, just by looking at the waveform displayed on your PC.
