- Make it cost-effective to purchase capabilities to cover future needs or needs across engineering teams
- Include the most frequently combined options for key applications and industries

Licenses To Fit Your Needs

Node-Locked
- Tied to a specific computer based on a unique identifier.
- Can not be moved to another computer
- Lower cost alternative to Floating

Floating
- Move the license freely from one computer to another
- Maximizes investment
- Move licenses from one computer to another, share between labs or across geography

Starter
Description:
These bundles add capabilities that almost all engineers need for embedded systems design.
4, 5 or 6 Series MSOs equipped with a Starter Bundle will be able to decode and trigger on I2 C, SPI, RS232/422/485/UART bus activity.
Includes an integrated arbitrary/function generator with 13 predefined functions and arbitrary waveforms. This is equivalent to adding -AFG, -SRCOMP and -SREMBD options.

Pro Automotive
Description:
Especially for ECU designers, this bundle provides outstanding system visibility for validations and troubleshooting.
It includes support for important automotive protocols, and serial standards compliance testing and debugging and:
- Starter Bundle included
- Automated decoding and triggering speeds debug.
Choose your series:
Pro Compliance
Description:
Includes all currently available compliance options for your Windows®-equipped 5 or 6 Series MSO. All standards use the TekExpress engine for flexible configuration, full instrument control, informative prompts and comprehensive reporting
Run all tests specified in the standard, or selected tests. Automatic report generation gives you a jump on documentation.
- Includes Starter Bundle Plus
Choose your series:
Pro Aerospace
Description:
Gain fast visibility into aerospace systems.
Includes serial bus decoding for protocols used in the aerospace industry, as well as support for generic encoding schemes such as NRZ and Manchester. Mask and limit testing make it easy to automate testing of unique signals.
