Sensitivity accuracy is better than 3%.
Rise time is 3.5ns and dynamic range is eight divisions at 60MHz and five divisions at 100MHz.
A z-axis modulation input is also included.
The main (A) sweep time is 50ns/div to 500ms/div, continuously variable and the delay (B) sweep time is 50ns/div to 50ms/div.
Sweep magnification is up to x10.
Accuracy is quoted at +/-3% (+/-5% at x10 magnification).
Delay time is 5us to 1s and delay jitter is better than 1:20000.
Trigger modes include auto, normal and TV, with a choice of trigger sources: channel 1, channel 2, line and external.
The GOS-6112 weighs just 9kg and is supplied with two probes (x1/x10) as standard.
