I think this is in the 125B Scope Meter and I see reference to the function with a BHT190 break out adapter. The literature indicates applications on the following bus architectures: Profibus, Foundation, Modbus, CAN-bus, AS-i bus and RS-485. I will leave it to you to research if this function would be helpful. BTW, the Scopemeter is about $3K and hard to get in a hurry.
