There are also versions for 16 bit Windows, and for Dos. If you are interested
in these, then mail Martin Lafferty ([email protected]).

WinTek 2.0.5.21

Easy Screen Capture for Tektronix Oscilloscopes

We use a THS 700 series handheld oscilloscope manufactured by Tektronix, and


have written a screen capture utility which enables users of this instrument to
post screen images directly from the scope to the Windows clipboard. We find
this utility extremely useful and if you have one of these things you are
welcome to download wintek32.zip. There are also versions for 16 bit Windows,
and for Dos. If you are interested in these, then mail Martin Lafferty.

History:

Version 2.03: Wintek 32 now supports lots of Tek models, including colour for
the first time.

Version 2.04: 27/04/02 Modified message loop to reduce CPU loading
