Which Environment is Right for Your Task?

Quick Pattern

“How do I get a really fast scan for a quick comparison?”

Quick Pattern environment lets you easily collect and plot data in a focused, straightforward manner.Easilydefineandstoresystemsetupsfor data collection and use these setups again and again. Quick Pattern also provides a convenient link from its plot feature for optional data analysis.

Standard

“I’m not sure what I need to do. Can I get all the test and measurement features I need with one package?”

When you need full test and measurement capability at hand, the Standard environment provides access to all the features of the MI-3000 at your fingertips. Seamlesslyintegrating collected data with a host of analysis functions and manipulation tools, the Standard environment provides the data and reports you need with the fewest ‘clicks’ starttofinish.

Tool Kit“We run the same tests over and over. Is there a simple way to do repetitive tasks?” The Tool Kit environment allows you to easily

set up test and measurement processes for repeatability. Create a Tool Kit to perform any repetitive task by simply ‘dragging and dropping’ the processes into your setup mode, name it and with one ‘click,’ let it run.
