OTC Perception
 
'Glitch' Capture' 2-channel Graphing Multimeter and Scope with vehicle-specific database.
Overview
OTC has discontinued this scope but we still provide accessories for it. Please click on RELATED PRODUCTS.

This scope also sold as the Mac Tools MacWave, Matco Reality, Cornwell Tech trace


Advanced dual trace lab scope allows you to test and compare two signals at the same time. The split screen can display both graphing DMM and scope patterns!

A vehicle specific database provides wiring diagrams for the circuit and recommended test procedures.

Includes a full function multimeter offering the fastest sampling rate of any multimeter on the market. The multimeter will also give you up to three measurements simultaneously.

Ignition
Also includes ignition measurements in both scope and graph modes for individual cylinders.

Scope: The OTC Perception is a powerful 2-channel lab scope capable of the most sophisticated component testing. With 'Glitch' capture you will see a driveability problem the microsecond it occurs.

Graph: Any meter reading can be displayed as a graph showing changes over time. Dropouts, spikes and the most minute changes are clearly visible, pointing the way to accurate repairs.

Multimeter: More powerful than any DMM on the market. Not only does it provide graphing capabilities, it can display up to three measurements of the
signal at the same time. For instance, you can check DC voltage, injector peak voltage and pulse width.

Glitch Capture gets its own button. The OTC Perception actually
understands the difference between normal and unusual signal
patterns, and it automatically recognizes and saves those events
for fast, accurate problem diagnosis.

Vehicle-Specific Database
Inside the Perception lies a powerful yet easy to use tool for fighting troubleshooting battles. The vehicle-specific database holds information about almost every domestic vehicle made from 1981 thru current as well as many imports. It also recommends the appropriate test procedure for quick, accurate
repairs. What you see on the screen is a diagram showing pin numbers and wire colors for both the PCM and the component connector.

List of Features
• Most advanced dual trace lab scope available lets you test and compare two signals at the same time.
• Split screen can display both graphing DMM and scope patterns at the same time.
• Simple to use; for component testing, just choose Preset Test and follow on-screen instructions.
• Vehicle-specific database gives wiring diagrams for the circuit, and the recommended test procedure for fast, accurate repairs.
• Full function multimeter offers the fastest sampling rate of any multimeter on the market.
• Multimeter function gives you up to three measurements simultaneously.
• Provides readout on volts, ohms, dwell, duty cycle, peak to peak, peak volts, injector pulse width, injector on time, firing voltage, burn voltage and burn time.
• A 'smart' mode actually recognizes the differences between normal and unusual patterns. The OTC Perception will see, save and store glitches, dropouts and spikes when they occur so you can find the cause of driveability problems.
• Provides highly accurate ignition measurements in both scope and graph modes on individual cylinders.
• Single cylinder ignition troubleshooting gives you digital display of firing kV, burn kV and burn time.
• Use the graph mode to measure and plot signal changes over time and to pinpoint problems.
• Split screen lets you see any two modes at once; multimeter/graph, graph/scope, or scope/multimeter. You can watch the scope and up to three DVOM measurements or watch live scope trace while graphing the signal.
• The OTC Perception will be a mainstay because as changes in systems and technology occur, updates will be available over the Internet from the OTC Bulletin Board. No obsolete equipment or cartridges.
