GPS-800X / 1000X series
GPS-800X / 1000X Series Handheld Oscilloscopes
Oscilloscope, true-RMS multimeter, FFT analysis and data logger in one instrument you can carry to the fault. The 1000X models add full channel isolation for floating measurement.
All-in-one
Scope, 6000-count true-RMS meter and recorder in one hand.
Isolated channels
1000X models isolate CH1, CH2, meter and power.
12 Mpts memory
400,000 wfm/s in sequence mode catches rare events.
22 hours logging
Sample logging to external memory for long unattended runs.
Where the 800X / 1000X excels
Built for measurement away from the bench, where mains power and a trolley aren’t available.
Outdoor & energy
Wind power and emerging energy equipment testing on site, on battery.
Automotive & EV
In-vehicle electronics and electrical system debugging, with CAN and LIN decode.
Embedded debug
Serial bus capture and decode for I²C, SPI, UART, CAN and LIN.
Floating measurement
Full isolation on 1000X reduces the risk of accidental short-circuits.
A bench instrument that fits in one hand
Intensity-graded acquisition, deep memory and multi-instrument functions in a rugged portable body.
Intensity-graded display
256-level intensity grading with colour temperature display at up to 400,000 frames per second, so jitter, runts and intermittent glitches stand out rather than being averaged away.
6000-count true-RMS meter
A 6000-count true-RMS multimeter channel, isolated from the scope inputs on every model. Current measurement adaptors for 600 mA and 10 A are supplied as standard.
1 Mpts FFT
A one-million-point FFT gives fine frequency resolution when examining signal spectra, driven by a hardware co-processor so the front panel stays responsive.
History & sequence
Segmented acquisition records only the events you care about across a long window, with minimal dead time between frames. History replay lets you step back through what was captured.
Data logger
Sample logging from 1 Sa/s to 25 kSa/s, for up to 22 hours to external memory. Measurement logging of up to four items at intervals from 0.1 s to 10 minutes, for about 100 hours with one item.
Rugged and portable
Sealed to IP51, dust and drip proof, with a 6900 mAh battery pack and an optional external charger. Built to be carried to the measurement rather than the other way round.
Why isolated inputs matter
The single biggest difference between the two series, and the reason to specify a 1000X.
Measuring where grounds don’t agree
On a conventional oscilloscope both channel grounds are tied together and to protective earth. Connect two probes to points at different potentials — across a shunt, either side of a switching device, or on a floating supply — and you create a short circuit through the instrument.
The usual workarounds are awkward: lifting the earth, using a differential probe, or measuring one point at a time. The GPS-1000X series removes the problem by isolating each channel from the others, from the multimeter input, from the power adaptor and from the USB port.
Shared ground inputs
Two BNC scope inputs plus an isolated multimeter channel. Suited to general service and bench work where all measurement points share a common reference.
- Scope: CAT II 300 Vrms between BNC signal and earth
- Scope: CAT II 30 Vrms between BNC GND and earth
- Meter: CAT III 300 Vrms, CAT II 600 Vrms
- Models GPS-810X and GPS-820X
Fully isolated channels
Each scope channel, the multimeter input, the power adaptor and the USB port are isolated from one another. Probe two points at different potentials at the same time without creating a current path through the instrument.
- Scope: CAT III 600 Vrms / CAT II 1000 Vrms signal to earth
- Scope: CAT III 300 Vrms between BNC signal and BNC GND
- Meter: CAT III 600 Vrms, CAT II 1000 Vrms
- Models GPS-1102X and GPS-1202X
