OK, I have send an email to support.

Hi The signal generator on 5244B has a problem. Sometimes it is making periodic "flat pauses" when it is supposed to generate a continues sine. I have used a second scope to investigate the problem (I did not believe it in the beginning). The second scope was trigging only on these flat pauses. The ...

Great to see that PicoScope is defending its position as the worlds best scope, by adding new features to a great program! Thank you, the developers, for adding this and many other features :D I have one question regarding the duty cycle: Don't you need a time-constant, or a window-length within whi...

Can you be a little more detail about what to do? It sounds interesting, but it also sounds Greek.

On windows 8.1, and Matlab R2012b, I get this message:

"C:\Users\..\matlab\mqair\PS5000.dll"
C:\Users\..\matlab\mqair\PS5000.dll is not a valid Win32
application.

The script used to work on windows 7, Matlab 2011.

Hi I have one (old) PS5204. I am very happy with the device, except when I try to control the device with Matlab. I have got things working, only to see it stop working when I changed version of Matlab and/or version of windows. It seems to me, like you have better support for some picoscope series,...

Hi Hitesh,

Yes, I have access to the Instrument Control Toolbox, I just wonder, if it will be any easier to connect to the new PS5000. Is it tested on a few PCs?

Hi, I am thinking very much about buying a 5244B. I am not sure if I need the calibration service. The only reason I can think of is the timebase accuracy (drift). The datasheet states that it is ±2 ppm (±1 ppm/year). I want to know, how much more precise does it get? Is the NS calibration service a...

Hi Hitesh, Thanks for your answer. I have yet to read the link, but regarding the question; Yes, it is 64bit, on Win64 . R2012b (8.0.0.783) 64 bit (win64) I have one more nagging question: I plan to change from my good old PicoScope 5203, to 5244B. Will that affect the matlab program? If so, maybe i...

HI Hitesh, Thanks for the help I think, I am almost through, but I still get the same error message same line. I can see that the file size of the dll has changed since last time I downloaded them some years ago. What is the mfilename good for? In the command prompt it is empty. Best Regards, Gustav

Hi Hitesh,

Thanks for the reply, but you need to be more specific. How do get the 64bit version of PS5000.dll? And how is the prototype recreated?

Best regards,

Gustav

Hi I am having problems with this line: >> loadlibrary('PS5000.dll','PS5000MFile') I have downloaded the latest PS5000.dll by Martyn » Thu Jan 31, 2013. It gives this message: Error using loadlibrary (line 419) There was an error loading the library "C:\Users\Ion\Documents\MATLAB\mqair\PS5000.dll" C...

Hi Martyn, Thanks for your "on the list for future enhancement" regarding the log sweep mode. There have been requests about log-scale and log-signal sweep for more than 3 years. by ziko » Tue Sep 15, 2009 1:00 pm Thank you for your request I have forwarded it to the software department. Whilst no p...

I am doing some measurement involving EMG signals (but it could also have been sound, the suggestion would have been the same). For the output signal generator, the sweep can either be up or down in a fixed steps. It would be much more practical to have a log scale. Imagin testing a loudspeaker, you...
