Fluke 190B / 190C Series Medical ScopeMeter Speed, Performance and Analysis Power for Medical Applications

  The Fluke 190 Series Medical ScopeMeters are high-performance oscilloscopes for the most demanding applications when servicing medical imaging equipment and video systems.
Based upon the Fluke 190B / 190C Series ScopeMeters, the Fluke Medical ScopeMeter offers measurement capabilities optimized for servicing medical equipment in the following modalities: X-ray, MRI, Nuclear Medicine and Ultrasound.
  • Dual input - 100 or 200 MHz bandwidth.
  • Choice of colour or monochrome versions.
  • Up to 2.5 GS/s real-time sampling per input.
  • mAs current-over-time measurement.
  • Connect-and-View™ automatic triggering, a full range of manual trigger modes plus external triggering.
  • Video triggering with line selector for standard and high-resolution video systems.
  • Smart averaging.
  • Selectable persistence mode.
  • 27,500 points per input record length using ScopeRecord™ mode.
  • Automatic capture and replay of 100 screens.
  • Automatic waveform measurements.
  • Four hours rechargeable NiMH battery pack.
  • 1,000 V CAT II and 600 V CAT III safety certified.
  • Up to 1,000 V independently floating isolated inputs.
  • Includes a 5,000 counts true-rms multimeter and a TrendPlot™ paperless recorder.
  • FlukeView Software, Carrying Case and accessories included.

Medical ScopeMeter® Features


mAs Measurement Calculates Current Over Time

Using the cursors, you can now measure directly the amount of radiation produced by X-ray systems, or the total amount of charge applied to a system.

Smart Averaging  


Smart averaging gives the averaged waveform over successive acquisitions, reducing noise in the displayed waveform. Thanks to smart averaging, you can now also see an incidental curve of a different wave shape with no effect on the averaged curve! This allows you to see the averaged curve of a sequence of video lines, for example, while still seeing the incidental flyback line flash by! Thanks to smart averaging, the oscilloscope gives an immediate response when the signal makes large changes, for instance when probing around different test points, while retaining the benefits associated with averaging!

Extended Offset  

Vertical offset is now extended to a maximum of 16 divisions, allowing vertical zoom-in for study of small details of the signal.

Selectable Persistence  


Persistence mode with selectable decay time helps to find anomalies in the wave shape and optimizes the display for color information when working with composite colour video. Can be used together with dots only mode, best for modulated signals, or with dot join mode for more continuous and stable wave shapes.
 

Extended Video Triggering


Next to its triggering capability for standard, interlaced TV signals, the instrument now triggers on high-resolution, non-interlaced video systems. The ScopeMeter 190 will trigger on all lines (non-selective), or can select an individual video line from systems with up to 2800 lines per frame.
 

MS190 Software Kit


The MS190 Software kit extends a standard Fluke 190 Series ScopeMeter with the software functions found in the Fluke 190M ScopeMeter.
See Compatibility and Installation Requirements below for details.

 

Fluke 190 Series ScopeMeter® Compatibility

MS190 Compatibility


The Fluke MS190 Software Extension kit can be loaded into a Fluke 192, 196 or 199 ScopeMeter with V 3.0 firmware or higher installed. Instruments with lower firmware versions will need a hardware upgrade (including calibration) through their Fluke authorised service centers.

MS190 is not compatible with Fluke 190C series ScopeMeter (colour versions).  

MS190 Installation Requirements 
  • Fluke 192, 196 or 199 ScopeMeter, with firmware V 3.0 or higher. To determine your firmware version select the 'USER' menu, then F3 'Version & Cal'.

  • PC, running Windows 95, 98, Me, NT 4.0 or 2000, equipped with a CD-ROM drive and with a free RS-232 port to perform the software installation.

MA190 Accessory Kit


The MA190 accessory set enables interconnection of the Fluke 190 for use in the field of Medical Imaging and Video systems. The kit is included in the Fluke 190M as a standard.

The accessory kit includes:

  • 50 ohm BNC feedthrough terminator, in insulated enclosure, to maintain proper termination of test connections during measurement.

  • 50 ohm BNC terminator with 10:1 signal attenuation; keeps test terminal properly loaded while getting optimum signal amplitude to benefit from the instrument’s extended offset range.

  • 1 ohm current shunt for current measurements, in insulated enclosure.

  • safety-designed BNC cable, 1.5 m (5 ft), with plastic connectors for safe connection to test terminals even when not at ground potential.

  • insulated BNC (f) to 4 mm banana plug adapter.

  • dual 4 mm banana receptacles (1 red, 1 black).

Specifications

For instruments that have the MS190 Software Extension installed, the full specification for the Fluke ScopeMeter 190 Series applies, with the additions as specified below.

Oscilloscope Mode
Display and acquisition Channels displayed: input A, input B, dual channel.

Display modes: smart averaging, normal averaging, selectable persistence, invert, replay.

Smart averaging displays averaged curve; incidental waveforms that differ too much from the average curve are displayed but do not contribute to the averaged curve.

Averaging factor: selectable: 2x, 4x, 8x, 64x or off.

Selectable persistence decay time: short, medium, infinite or off; can be used with dots only display or with dot join mode.

Trigger and delay - Video Triggering

Interlaced video: NTSC, PAL, PALplus, SECAM. Selects field 1, field 2, lines or on user selected line from a frame.

Non-interlaced video: for line counts up to 2800 lines per frame and and video scan rates up to 65 kHz; triggers on fields, on lines or on user-selected line.

Cursor measurements Dual vertical lines: time between cursors, voltage between markers, 1/T (in Hz), mVs, mAs
Zoom Horizontal zoom: Up to 8x

Vertical zoom: using position control (offset) and vertical sensitivity.

Offset range

Max. offset for viewing positive-going signals: 16 divisions for input sensitivity settings 5…50 mV/div (50…500 mV/div. when using 10:1 probe or TA190-50R); 8 divisions for all other vertical sensitivity settings.

Max. offset for viewing negative-going signals: 8 divisions for all vertical sensitivity settings.
