Hi, Can somedody tell me if it is possible to view a waveform from a speed sensor (inductive sensor),using the 4423 scope ? The sensor produces AC voltage of approx 1.2 VAC.

I would hope so if VR CKP sensors are possible .....
Everybody, Thanks for the answer. Sorry Iam asking dumb questions,but I have never used an scope before. Iam an agri-engineer (dealer based)and Iam seriously considering a picoscope 4423.The agri industry is getting increasingly more complex with electrionic systems . Do you think a scope would benifit my diagnostics greatly ?

Robski,
The kind of systems we work on include, engine management,transmission and hydraulic management systems.
All of which are ECU controlled and use CAN networks.Obviously the systems incorperate sensors,actuators i.e spool/soleniods etc We use manufactures diagnostic software, but this does not give you the possibility to view signals/waveforms ,such as PWM signals etc. We get more and more intermittent faults ,which I was hoping I could capture using a scope ? Please give me your thoughts............
Cheers, Med.
