Regarding the Austron 2000C setup: I just finished going through the chart recorder method of determining the tracking point, and it turns out that I was correct in my visual determination using the oscilloscope and sweep rates of 5 and 10 us/division. However, it is much easier to see the first cycle of the pulse on the chart paper than on the 'scope screen. I can see that with higher background noise, the chart recorder would be better. Presumably I could replace the paper chart recorder with a DAQ/PC arrangement as well.
