Hi springburo, You're essentially correct. In our PicoScopes, the Analogue-to-Digital Converter (ADC) performs the conversion single ended to give ADC values from zero up to the maximum value for whatever resolution is being used. PicoScope 6 then effectively applies a DC offset to place 0V at a hal...

Hi LarsW, With our data loggers there is a distinction between sampling interval and conversion time. 'Conversion Time' is hardware related, and is the time taken by the Analogue to Digital conversion process, while 'Sampling Interval' is software related, and is the time in between requests, by Pic...

Hi jur01,

You need to increase the displayed resolution by double clicking the channel, and then selecting 'Options->OK', ticking the 'Use parameter formatting' box, and then changing the 'Decimal places' to 5.

Hi PierreH, In Extended Time Sampling (ETS) mode a 50 sample waveform cycle would consist of one sample from 50 consecutive waveform cycles captured in Real-Time Sample (RTS) mode. In the resulting ETS waveform cycle, ETS sample point 1 would be RTS sample point 1 from RTS waveform cycle 1, ETS samp...

Hi siliciumenergy, You need to scale the math channel in the 'Edit' window of the 'Math channels' menu option. First of all, if the Math channel is in an existing Library (not one you created) you will have to create a duplicate to be able to edit it. Then just do the following: Go to Edit->Next->Ne...

Hi weroflu, The answer to your question depends upon exactly what you need to see in the signal in order to perform your testing. I'm assuming that by p/s you mean power supply (PSU) in which case the PicoScope 2000 and 3000 series should be fine for at least some PSU trouble shooting (if you have a...

Hi volke, Regarding the general temperature dependency, outside of the specified environmental range, you could get the PicoScope calibrated for the additional environmental range (as long as you don't exceed the operating range limits). You are correct regarding the type of averaging used. For down...

Hi Labbe, Let me first of all welcome you to the forum, and just say that your English (or translation :-) ) is actually pretty good. To answer your questions: Have you tried saving the file as a psdata file then transferring that to your PC, so that you can take a screenshot of the data file on the...

Hi Glovisol,

I posted a reply, but as this is now a technical support issue, a better medium to use would be our help desk. So, I will create a ticket and continue my response on the ticket.

Hi Glovisol, Although I implied it, I didn't explicitly confirm whether the automatic compensation is done by PicoLog by default, so I apologise for leaving that out. Also, I was tied up on Friday so I wasn't able to respond quickly to your posted reply. So, to answer your first question in more det...

Hi Glovisol, The value for pH is a measure of the activity of the Hydrogen ions in the solution being measured. Increasing the temperature increases the activity of the ions, so the slope of the pH response for a pH sensor varies linearly with temperature. This direct dependence enables us to compen...

Hi sba923, Here is a better coded implementation: ************************************************************************************************** * Create a mark/space waveform out of a modulation burst waveform * * Method * * while the value of the sample is outside the threshold limits of no ac...

Hi sba923, As you didn't mention anything about the SDK and as you said that you have tried the built in function freq(A) I assumed that you were using PicoScope 6 and knew the process of how to create a Math channel (as all you have to do to create one is press the create button, and follow the pro...

Hi sba923, The custom function was created from observation. I have previously created the instantaneous RMS function, and I knew that it would, to some extent, smooth out the pulse burst, and saw that it creates a group of peaks. I then figured that a low pass filter would completely (or almost) sm...
