oscilloscope screen
I want to capture screen dumps from my old (monochrome) Tektronix TDS220.
It has a serial port, but I can't conveniently have a laptop available for capturing each screen "print". I'm capturing flight data in a two seat aircraft, and there's simply no room for the scope, the AC inverter, and a laptop.
I borrowed a newer TEK scope with compact flash card, but the color screen is nearly impossible to see in daylight.
Can anyone recommend a means of capturing screen dumps via a serial/USB adapter that can receive the file dump data from my old TDS220 and write it to a thumb drive? Keep in mind the file format is probably unique to the TEK wavestar PC software.
