Re: Problems getting SDK running on Python - SOLVED!

Hi, I second this, we need better documentation on install for windows. I followed the instruction for the install of the picoSDK and downloaded the python binding library for my 64 bit windows system. Even after installing and re-installing the picoSDK multiple times I still get the following error...

Re: picologger python wrappers?

Thanks for the reply,

My mistake in not providing more information,

We have a PicoLog 1216 that we are wondering if there's python wrappers in the pipeline for?

Thanks!

Re: Python SDK & ps5000aSetSigGenArbitrary

So I'm about to answer my own question. I didn't stop trying to figure this out after I submitted my question, so here's the solution for others who may end up in the same situation. When you want to generate a custom waveform for the Picoscope's AWG, create the array as a numpy.array. Once you've g...

Python SDK & ps5000aSetSigGenArbitrary

Hi folks, I've done some search and how come up with nothing thus far. So I'm trying to use the Arbitrary Waveform functionality of the Generator on a Picoscope 5242D (This is probably applicable for others as well). Generally speaking I've got everything setup: #Generate our waveform repPeriod = 0....

Re: Python, 5242D, and ps5000aGetValuesAsync()

Hi Hitesh, I'll do my best to give some context, We're using both the AWG & 2 Channels on the 5242D. The AWG output is connected to Channel B to trigger Channel A to capture a reflection signal, that's the current hardware setup. Software wise, the AWG is configured for burst mode. Generating a user...

Python, 5242D, and ps5000aGetValuesAsync()

Hi Folks, Back with another head scratcher (at least for me). I have spent a fair amount of time with the PicoSDK at this point and have an OK understanding of using it. My problem at the moment is, in Python, trying to use the "ps.ps5000aGetValuesAsync()" Function. PICO_STATUS ps5000aGetValuesAsync...

Re: Python SDK and SigGen with 5242D

Hi Hitesh, Thanks for the feedback. So I had actually already tried what you had suggested. Where I was going wrong was the combination of triggering source and triggering type. I had used the SoftwareTrigger with the "PS5000A_SIGGEN_GATE_HIGH" which caused an error with the SDK. Playing around more...

Python SDK and SigGen with 5242D

Hi Guys, I've been working on integrating the Picotech 5242D into a python application that uses both the Oscilloscope and Signal generator functionality. While I've had no issues with the Oscilloscope functions, I have come across some bumps with the Signal Generator. Some details: the goal is to h...
