Hello people,
i don't know if this is the right section to put this question, and i'm shure
that someone asked this before. I need some documentation on how to use a vectorscope. Can somebody tell where can i find this or send me some pdf with this info?
You can send it to brunovaz@servitel.mail.pt

Thanks a lot

Note: if you are using a vectorscope within software (i.e., post-digitized video), some of the features won't apply.

Hi John,
thanks a lot for your reply. I'm using a real vectorscope, LEADER LVS-5851A.
I'll read this carefully.
By the way, how did you get there? I only find it by clicking the link, navigating the site i can't find it.

Once again, thank you.

Best regards

Bruno

By the way, how did you get there?

I'd been there before(!) - so I just Googled for "tektronix vectorscope" (without the quotes):

http://www.google.com/search?as_q=tektronix+vectorscope

and I clicked on the first hit which is/was:

http://www.tek.com/Measurement/App_Notes/NTSC_Video_Msmt/vectorscope.html

When it opens, it eventually ends up at the final link I provided.

Yes, i understand. But i tried to get there from the beginning, starting in www.tek.com.
Anyway, the important is that i found it.
I can't thank you enough.

Regards
