Using Application Modules
Optional application module packages extend the capability of your oscilloscope. (See page 15, Application Module Free
Trial.) (See page 15, Installing an Application M odule .)
Refer to the MSO4000B, DPO4000B, and MDO4000 Series Application Module Installation Instructionshat came with
your application m odule for instructions on installing and testing an application module. Some modules are described in
the following list. Additional modules may be available. Contact your Tektronix representative or visit our Web site at
www.tektronix.com for more information. Also, refer to Contacting Tektronix at the beginning of the manual.

level information in RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, and UA RT buses, and analytical tools to help you efficiently analyze
your serial bus. These include digital views of the signal, bus views, packet decoding, s earch tools, and event tables
with timestamp information.
The DPO4EMBD Embedded Serial Triggering and Analysis Module adds triggering and analysis on packet level
information in serial buses used in embedded designs (I
2
C and SPI), as well as analytical tools to help you efficiently
analyze your serial bus. These include digital views of the signal, bus views, packet decoding, search tools, and event
tables with timestamp information.
The DPO4E NET Serial Triggering and Analysis Module adds triggering and analysis on 10BA SE-T and 100B ASE-TX
bus signals.
The DPO4LMT Limit and Mask Test Module adds testing acquired waveforms against a comparison waveform with
user-defined horizontal and vertical limits or against telecom standard masks or custom masks.
The DPO4PWR Power Analysis Module adds measurements of power quality, switching loss, harmonics, ripple,
