Re: Serial decoding

Thanks Martyn, Whilst on the subject of serial decoding, this time I2C, I would suggest the following improvements: 1. The Address and Data fields both start with repeated titles and are left justified, so you need to zoom in rather more than necessary in order to see the ACK. I would suggest removi...

Re: Serial decoding

Hi Martyn,

Please find the data you requested. The waveform also shows some serial data. Ignore the first byte and the subsequent byte(s) correspond to the DALI data. I have also posted some information regarding the timings. TE= 416.67us.

Regards,

Jeremy.

Re: Serial decoding

Hi Martyn,

Yes, I do have a copy of the beta, but I couldn't make it work with Mancester coded data. I don't have Visual Studio, so was trying the XML method. Do you have an example decoding for decoding Manchester encoded data?

Regards,

Jeremy.

Re: Serial decoding

Hi Martyn,

Any news on the custom serial decoding. I tried the previous version, but couldn't get it to work with Manchester encoded signals. Even decoding to binary would be useful as it's difficult to read Manchester encoded data on the scope.

Re: Serial decoding

Any thoughts on the DALI decoding? A more general solution would be to have a Mancester decoder similar to the Teledyne LeCroy’s configurable Manchester decoder.

Re: pulse width triggering

I tried resetting the startup settings and restarting the application but I am still having the same problem.

I can't get it to trigger on any value >0. http://i.imgur.com/wo6CC1v.gif

Re: pulse width triggering

This is the waveform triggering from CHB, so it should trigger: http://i.imgur.com/3bD8EBa.png. Is there a reason why this wouldn't work with pulse width triggering?

Re: pulse width triggering

The settings are created from scratch. The trigger point looks to be in the correct place. If I adjust the time to 0 seconds the waveform triggers, but anything larger than that (like 300ns) then it doesn't.

Re: pulse width triggering

001 shows the waveform (DMX512)
002 is triggering from CH A pulse width > 80us. (anythig > 0s and it doesn't trigger)

pulse width triggering

I have a 2205MSO running 6.6.50.3 I cant get the pulse width trigger to work. The signal is about 12khz square wave @ 5V. Pulse direction = Pos or Neg condition = Greater than Threshold 2V Hysteresis = 0 I can't get the scope to trigger id the time is greater than 0s. ( At 0s it triggers all the tim...

Re: Serial decoding

You can decode DMX512 by triggering on the break (pulse width > 80us) and then using serial 232 decoding @ 250kbps. You have to count the channels though, but if you are only using the first few it's quite useful.

Serial decoding

Hi,

If you select serial decoding (UART/232) before the scope has captured any data then it crashes.

Also are there any plans to support DALI and DSI (lighting protocols)? Is it possible to define your own protocol?

DALI protocol can be found here: http://litecontroller.com/dali/frame.asp

R5.21.2 USB Parallel & ADC212

Hi,
The latest release R5.21.2 doesn't work with USB parallel adaptor and ADC212. It seems to work once then subsequently gets stuck at the splash screen. Tried it on 2 different (XP) machines.

The previous release R5.21.1 works OK
