There is an error in the PS3000con.c driver (as of 8/6/2007) in the function set_defaults. The last argument of ps3000_set_channel is set to unitOpened.lastRange. This is wrong and will cause the data to be collected with the range set to the maximum upper voltage range (probably 20 V) instead of what you have selected. Change this argument to:
unitOpened.channelSettings[PS3000_CHANNEL_A + i].range
This error really had me scratching my head until the found it. The symptoms were that the raw ADC counts were the same no matter what range I selected, but the mV conversion was wrong except at the 20V range. |
