What's New (2026 Update 1 Release)

The new features included in the 2026 Update 1 software release are summarized below:

  • Markers have been updated. You can now define up to 16 markers. Delta marker types have been added to the existing manual and tracking marker types. For more information, see Markers.
  • There are now wizards for running RemoveCable and RemoveProbe AC calibration. See the probes' Deembedding topic.
  • RF Adapters are now shown in the Probe/External Hardware Setup dialog box. See Probes/External Hardware.
  • The Averaged sampling mode no longer changes the behavior of Single (single acquisition) or Run (continuous acquisitions), channels and measurements on channels are questionable until the specified number of waveforms have been averaged, and there is now a Stop when fully averaged option. Also, Automatic Sin(x)/x interpolation is turned off at memory depths above 500 Mpts. See Acquisition Tab.
  • You can now set up a Sequence trigger that lets you trigger on an event that follows another event. See Sequence Triggers.
  • There are now PAM Jitter measurements. See PAM Jitter.
  • There is now an Edge to Edge time measurement. See Edge to Edge.
  • You can now specify the Phase measurement units as degrees or seconds. See Phase.
  • In the Edge Then Edge trigger mode, you can now specify the Nth occurrence of the trigger source edge that will trigger. See Edge Then Edge.
  • You can now set up zone-qualified triggers on function waveforms and you can set up measurement qualified triggers on measurements made on function waveforms. See Zone Qualified Triggers and Measurement Qualified Triggers.
  • You can now set up protocol-qualified triggers. See Protocol Qualified Triggers.
  • The licensed USB4 Protocol Decode feature is now supported. See USB4 Gen 2-4.
  • When setting up absolute or ±hysteresis measurement thresholds, you can now display interactive level markers that can be dragged up or down to make adjustments. See Show Interactive Level Markers.
  • When FFT peak detection is enabled, peak markers now show the peak number. See FFT Peak Detection.
  • You can now zoom in on Jitter or Noise graphs. See Zooming Jitter or Noise Graphs.
  • You can now specify Peak Excursion Level when setting up FFT peak detection. See FFT Peak Detection.
  • The Idle Clock Count advanced clock recovery setting now appears when the Contains Electrical Idle advanced setting is enabled and it can now also be used along with the Advanced Clock Recovery for Closed Eyes advanced setting. See Contains Electrical Idle (and Idle Clock Count).
  • The MIPI M-PHY PWM clock recovery mode can now be selected. See MIPI M-PHY PWM.
  • There are now HorizontalChange and VerticalChange variables for user-defined functions and user-defined measurements that are helpful when accumulating data needs to be reset on one of these changes. See User-Defined Operators and User-Defined Measurements.
  • When saving waveform data to a BIN (.bin) format file, you can now select Save All Waveforms. See BIN (.bin).
  • To improve the save times, the Documentation Wizard now saves waveform data using the HDF5 (.h5) format. See Documentation Wizard.
  • The UTF-8 BOM (Byte Order Mark) is no longer written to X and XY format waveform data files when the Include Header option is cleared. This allows the MATLAB load() function to load these waveforms. See Waveform Files (XY Values) (.csv) and Waveform Files (Y Values) (.txt).
  • You can now open the PathWave Calibration Advisor application from within the Infiniium application and check the oscilloscope's calibration status. See PathWave Calibration Advisor.
