Re: Signal Loss when Zooming In on Y-Axis with PicoScope 3406DMSO

Do you get the same effect if you try channels B to D ? You will note that as you change from 500mV to 200mV a relay will click inside the unit as the input stage is switched to handle the smaller level signals. This will mean that the overvoltage near 10V signal you have at the input connector is s...

Re: Help with setting up Python SDK (Picoscope 5242D)

I would suggest running the ps5000a examples directly and not using the discover driver function

Re: Latest supported PicoScope version for 2202 USB scope?

PicoScope 7 may work although we no longer perform testing against this model

if not then please use the previous PicoScope 6 software

Re: SETTING X AXIS AS DEGREES - STROBE LIGHT

Can you post a psdata file so that we can see exactly what data you have.

It can be possible to create a math channel related to the repeat frequency of the ignition signal, and then using the X-Y Instrument replace the X-axis with this math channel.

Re: Signal Loss when Zooming In on Y-Axis with PicoScope 3406DMSO

That does look strange when changing the voltage range from +/-500mV to +/-200mV, it would be useful to know how high a voltage overrange there is, so changing from the +/-500mV range to +/-20V range would be interesting to see.

Re: Max number of Picoscope 4444 usable on a computer

The OP was after 5 to 15 PicoScopes which is an unusual request. Most cases for adding multiple scopes are unique so we prefer to advise people in relation to their specific needs which is why we will often ask people to email in to support@picotech.com Can you give more detail on exactly why you ar...

In PicoScope 7 this has been renamed as Actions which can be found in the More Tools panel

You can trigger on different events

Re: Resolution enhancement and trigger threshold

Resolution enhancement is applied post capture on collected data in the PC. Triggering is performed on the original data in the PicoScope.

Re: Pico 2000A Timing and sampling settings

If you look at the Scope button on the top of the display you will see Samples 125 (1290), PicoScope 7 is only collecting 125 samples, but the softare is using sin(x)/x interpolation to bump this up to 1290 which is why you are seeing the ripple. If you are using the same sampling settings as PicoSc...
