Re: Connection trouble using Matlab

Hi

Can I check whether the PicoScope Support Toolbox addon is installed and on the MATLAB path?

Hi

Are you able to post your code file or email it into support@picotech.com as a runnable file so I can have a look at the setup and at what's going on?

Re: Sampling rate vs downsampling

Hi If you measure at 25 MHz the scope will take samples at that sample rate rather than some kind of downsampling or filtering happening on the data. Downsampling can be useful in certain situations such as using the average downsampling mode to help reduce noise but it depends on exactly what you'r...

Re: MATLAB can't find Picoscope 2000 series

Hi

The 2206B uses the ps2000a driver and needs to use the matching examples from the PicoScope 2000 Series (A API) - MATLAB Generic Instrument Driver addon.

Re: MATLAB can't find Picoscope 2000 series

Hi Kat

Which scope model in the 2000 series are you using?
Also when you're running the MATLAB examples is there any Pico software running?

Yours,
Neil

Re: Understand CSV files data

Hi The data in each CSV file is self contained with the trigger point for that buffer being referenced as 0 s. If you need to collect continuous data over long periods of time for manipulation in python I would suggest looking at using python to control the scope directly and use streaming mode capt...

Re: getting legacy code to work with Windows 10

Are you able to post the code as a .mat file or email into support@picotech.com as more context is needed to diagnose why this is erroring.

Re: getting legacy code to work with Windows 10

Hi

What exactly is happening when you try to run the code?

We have a youtube video which takes through setting up MATLAB to use with our scopes which may be useful to check against. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpMIRnvylTk&t=26s

Re: ps3000aMaximumValue() Returns Wrong Value

Hi the ps3000aMaximumValue() function will return the maximum value of the data returned to the PC which is scaled from 8 bit of the ADC to 16 bit for transfer so 32512 is the correct return value for this function. This helps to keep all the scopes consistent regardless of the ADC bit resolution of...
