Measurement application probe, measurement application device, and measurement application system

A measurement application device comprising:

• at least one measurement interface configured to couple to a measurement application probe for coupling the measurement application device to an in-vehicle connector, and to a acquire an analog measurement signal from the measurement application probe, the measurement signals including analog waveforms provided via the in-vehicle connector;
• and
• a protocol decoder coupled to the measurement interface, and configured to decode the received at least one measurement signal according to a predefined communication protocol,
• wherein the measurement application device shows the acquired measurement signal to a user in analog form, and in digital form as at least one of the decoded data, and bus messages in linear or tabular form.

A measurement application system comprising:

• a measurement application probe comprising:
• an automotive connector configured to couple to an in-vehicle connector for receiving analog waveforms provided via the in-vehicle connector, the automotive connector including a plurality of electrical contacts each configured to electrically couple to a respective counterpart contact of the in-vehicle connector;
• and
• at least one measurement application device connector coupled to the automotive connector;
