Re: Maths on successive samples of same input signal

Hi stubb, Unfortunately, there are some limitations that apply to some of the Math Channel functions. I had to use an alternative method for 3-Phase Power Quality Analysis, because I couldn't use sqrt() on delayed waveforms, or Reference waveforms (so I had to actually create all of the phase wavefo...

Re: PicoScope: horizontal (x-axis) scaling scaling of a Reference signal relative to another waveform file's signal

For users of non-Automotive PicoScopes...there IS a way to shrink or stretch a waveform along the time axis (while sacrificing a little waveform definition).

If there is enough interest then, when I find some more time, I will post the method here.

Regards,

Gerry

Re: Maths on successive samples of same input signal

Hi stubb, Actually that's a better idea, aligning the sample positions so that you can manipulate them relatively with Math channels. The answer to your question is Yes. Here is an example data file: DIFF example.psdata and an example Screenshot showing the file: DIff example.png You can see that, D...

Re: Maths on successive samples of same input signal

Hi Stubb, Unfortunately, there is no way to refer to the relative positions of sample values, using a numeric value. However, what you can do is use a Math Channel to isolate sections of consecutive sample values from a Channel Input, using Trig functions, if the sections that you want to perform Ma...

Re: New Guy from a land down under

Hi Foxtrot,

You are very welcomed to contributing, or asking for help, on this Forum.

However, you may find our Sister Forum here: https://www.picoauto.com/support, more relevant and useful, as it's specifically for the use of our Automotive based products.

Re: Pico 2204 in Linux

Hi yeng428yeng, You need to use PicoScope 7, if you want the use of a Waveform Generator. Your screenshot shows the device menu for our Pico Log 6 software. PicoLog 6 is typically used for Logging Data from sensors, over relatively long periods of time, in order to analyze relatively slow changing p...

Re: Picoscope 3504D possible to generate trigger signal for highspeedcamera?

Hi Benjamin, Sorry for the delay in responding. Using the detected current increase you can Trigger the generation of a waveform on your PicoScope to Trigger the high speed Camera. As an example I have created a GIF file which shows this in action here: Slowly rising Ch A waveform, generating166us p...

Re: Will Frequency Response Analyzer app work with the lowest end PicoScope?

Hi mbmsv,

Found the post I was referring to.

So, if you want to know more specifics regarding the limitation of using a PicoScope 2204A with the Response Analyzer, you can go here: topic41113.html.

Hi Phil, Sorry for the late response. If you haven't managed to solve the problem then we would suggest the following: It would be extremely unusual for the actual operating system to be causing the difference in levels (the only thing I could think of would be some kind of driver handling bug, but ...

Re: PicoScope: horizontal (x-axis) scaling scaling of a Reference signal relative to another waveform file's signal

Hi PeterScope, Unfortunately, shrinking or stretching a waveform along the Time Axis is more complicated than it sounds. Basically, you can't just apply a simple function, you would have to re-sample the data. This means that you would need to create new data values representing intermediate vertica...

Re: Will Frequency Response Analyzer app work with the lowest end PicoScope?

Hi mbmsv, The answer to the question in your Title is Yes. So the minimum spec PicoScope that will work is our Minimum Spec 2204A, however you will find some limitations in using the PicoScope 2204A and 2205, For instance, the performance in the Frequency domain is limited due to the maximum number ...
