Re: 2 MHz spectral area option in FFT mode with 4262

An additional 2.5 MHz setting would indeed not only solve my problem, but be appreciated from anyone using this DSO as FFT spectrum analyzer as serious lab tool. I do, and selected it because there is no competition for what the hardware can do. I don't use the DSO part at all. Martyn, how long you ...

Re: 2 MHz spectral area option in FFT mode with 4262

Well, I really don't know what to say. Is this a serious measurement instrument costing 1,200 €? Or a toy for my child to play? What else did you 'round up' in this software to make it look nicer? Is there anything I can still trust, or is this an example for the accuracy I have to expect from Picot...

Re: 2 MHz spectral area option in FFT mode with 4262

So, for example, if you select a bandwidth of 2MHz for the PicScope 4262, the sample rate used is the nearest sample rate available that would be 2 times the Bandwidth which is 3.333MS/s (the only sample rates available are based on the maximum sample rate for the PicoScope model divided by factors...

Re: Frequency Response Analyzer with Bode Plots

hexamer - thanks for coding this nice tool and providing it to the community! I checked all log entries and got this: Status: 4262 S/N: CU988/013 successfully initialized. Status: Starting frequency step 1 (1.000 Hz) Status: Starting frequency step 1, range try 1 Status: Setting signal generator fre...

2 MHz spectral area option in FFT mode with 4262

4262 with latest Picoscope 6.12.7. Choosing a spectral range of 2 MHz the x axis is labelled 1.6 MHz, with a max of 1.65 MHz to the right. I'm a new user but heard that in older versions there was no 2 MHz option at all, but a 1.7 MHz. So it looks like this choice is wrong and should be 1.7 MHz?

Yes. Log window says:

Status: Starting frequency step 1 (1.000 Hz)

and that's it...

Re: Frequency Response Analyzer with Bode Plots

I really would like to try out this software/tool - unfortunately I can't get it working. Windows 10 64, not the latest Creator's update, FRA 0.6. I have a 4262, which is detected on start of FRA. All standard default settings. I hit go, the log says it will start with the first frequency, I hear a ...
