Measurement Delta not saved to psdata file

Am running PicoScope 6.13.15.4081. When I save to a .psdata file and then later open it the Measurement Delta column is all zeros. The current, min, max, and average data columns show the correct information.

I know it is a small thing, just wanted to let you know.

Re: Monitor CanBus Signals

The Peak CAN to USB interface has two RJ-45 Paralleled connectors for CanBus connectivity and a USB Type A output connector to the computer. The RJ-45 connectors can either be used in a pass-through mode for a mid bus connection or, with the use of a 120 ohm terminator, be connected to the end of th...

Re: Monitor CanBus Signals

Think I may have found the answer. It's a breakout board with four, parallel RJ-45 Jacks and a breakout connector. Below is an image.

Monitor CanBus Signals

I have a Pico 2206B MSO scope and I need to tap into, and analyze, an existing CanBus. This is not an Automotive or NEMA 2000 CanBus. It consists of RJ-45 connectors, with Cat 5e UTP cables, and terminators at each end. I have looked for a fixture or breakout board I could use to tap in, but with no...

USB 4 (Intel Thunderbolt 3)

In March of this year it was announced that the new USB4 functionality will be based on Intel's Thunderbolt 3 technology. USB4 will provide 40Gbits/s throughput plus power. Is Pico researching incorporating USB4 into any of their products? I have computers utilizing Thunderbolt 3 and it's impressive...

Re: TA041 Lead Extension

Gerry, Thanks for your rapid and detailed response. This support forum is the best I have experienced. The Fluke leads and probe tips are rated CAT III 1000 V, CAT IV 600 V, so should work fine. Think I've got all the setup questions answered. Now it's time to start climbing the "Learning Curve" mou...

TA041 Lead Extension

I find that the probe leads out of the TA041 are too short for electrical enclosure use. Can I use my Fluke 4mm terminated, 1.5M cables as extensions, or will they skew the measurements? If they will skew the measurements, how can I compensate?

Thanks,
Pat

Re: Channel Setup for TA167 Current Probe

Gerry, Thanks for the custom probes, they are a big help. I hate to be a pain, but I also have a TA041. I am currently using the x10 or x100 system probes, depending on selected scale. Is that ok, or do I need a custom probe for the TA041? Just trying to make sure I have everything setup correctly. ...

Channel Setup for TA167 Current Probe

I have a Pico TA167 Current Probe. When I setup the Channel I do not find this probe in the "standard" probe list. Is one of the listed probes compatible with the TA167? If not, could you please assist with setup parameters for the TA167. Or, is it just best to select 1x or 10x depending on the meas...

Fluke Probe Tip Compatibility

I have an extensive set of Fluke probe tips. Will they be compatible with the TA041 differential probe I have on order?
Thanks,
