The Tektronix WVR6100 is a multi-standard, multi-format waveform rasterizer engineered for SD-SDI video signal analysis in broadcast and post-production environments. It delivers comprehensive waveform monitoring, vector displays, and picture analysis with fully digital processing for drift-free, repeatable measurements. The instrument supports SD-SDI (ITU-R BT.601) as standard and optional composite analog video monitoring, enabling detailed signal quality control and standards compliance verification.
