If you are not able to get plots that look sensible based on the circuit you're measuring, there are a couple of ways to debug: 1. First is the log created in the lower left section of ...

OK, Aaron, that part works but now I get: Fatal error: Failed to setup input channel: 269 Status: 6402 S/N: AQ552/011 successfully initialized. Gary Gary, Thank you again for helping out.

Re: Frequency Response Analyzer with Bode Plots

PICO_POWER_SUPPLY_NOT_CONNECTED is not applicable as the Power Supply is always needed for 6000 series devices. Thank you for clarifying that, Martyn. Will the PS6000 scopes still establish a USB connection without external DC power, and would they also enumerate? If so, what code would they return...

Re: Bode plots in Matlab using numerous imported PicoScope f

Is it a requirement that you use Matlab? If not, you could consider my application to solve your general problem: http://bitbucket.org/hexamer/fra4picoscope/wiki/Home It does require Windows (it's not cross-platform yet). Version 0.4b supports 2204A. Otherwise, if you need to use Matlab, then I woul...

Re: Frequency Response Analyzer with Bode Plots

I think they look as expected.. great job! I have some thoughts btw., maybe some of them are relevant only for me, so take these very subjective :) -I'd like to see a fullscreen option,I like to investigate the plots in high resolution :) -maybe really only useful for me, but if I could invert one ...
