PicoScope 4 Channel Standard Kit 4425A PQ178

PicoScope 4 Channel Standard Kit 4425A PQ178

New PicoScope 4425A for active diagnostics

PicoScope 4 Channel Kit is Our exciting new PicoBNC+™ probe connectivity, unique to PicoScope 4225A and 4425A oscilloscopes, provides you with:

• Channel status lights to show you which probes and channels to connect and their status when you load a data file or guided test
• Smart probe interfacing so that all your probe configuration takes place in the software – no more incorrect probe switch positions!
• Powered probes that are always on and ready to go – no more flat batteries, current clamp zeroing, or auto-off!
• Future-proofing of your diagnostic capabilities as we develop new probe technologies.
• Full backwards-compatibility with BNC for all your existing PicoScope or third-party probes

All our automotive PicoScopes have the features that have already helped technicians around the world with vehicle diagnostics:

• 400 M samples/second and 20 MHz bandwidth to make sure you can test the latest vehicles such as those with high-speed FlexRay or CAN-FD networks
• 12-bit (16-bit enhanced) resolution – your waveforms in high definition
• 250 M sample memory for long-duration captures; ideal when you are trying to diagnose intermittent faults
• USB 3.0 data transfer speeds and power, providing you with high performance and portability

Why do you need a PicoScope?

Could you use a scan tool instead of a labscope? No, you need both.

A scan tool only points you in the right direction, perhaps indicating a misfire on a specific cylinder, but rarely does it pinpoint a fault. For example, is the misfire caused by an ignition, injector, or a compression-related issue?

Reliance on a scan tool alone can lead you to “parts darts” where you might find yourself replacing more and more parts until the fault goes away.

Instead, a PicoScope helps you:

• Eliminate guesswork and test individual components before replacing them.
• Find troublesome intermittent faults.
• Investigate vehicle problems when there are no, multiple, or misleading fault codes.
• Diagnose charging and starting faults.
• Trace problems with actuators that are not monitored by the ECU, such as motors and injectors.
• Identify mechanical problems such as compression and slipped / incorrectly fitted timing belts.
• Prove the source of an NVH problem
• Report your objective findings back to your managers and customers

As a technician, a PicoScope brings you faster, more efficient diagnostics and a clear understanding of the vehicle’s workings.

As workshop owner, a PicoScope gives you a “fix it right” culture, with fewer parts changed on guesswork, and increased customer satisfaction, repeat business and profits.
