Picoscope 4444 and 442 probe: locked to 100kHz
Picoscope 4444 and 442 probe: locked to 100kHz
Hi,
I just got my new PicoConnect 442 probe for the 4444 oscilloscope.
It work, but I am locked to a 100kHz bandwith limit. There is no other button available.
I tested it, in fact there is a low pass in place.
Tried to use another input and also deinstalled the software and installed again. I am on the 6.14.36 now, was on the beta version before.
What am I doing wrong? Would really need it to run at 10MHz as expected.
Thanks,
Simon

If you press the 100kHz button does it toggle the bandwidth limit on and off?

No, it does nothing...

I will need to ask someone who has access to a 4444 and a 442 probe to check this on Monday.

Tested on my 4444 and 442 ant it is indeed locket at 100kHz
Simple test with a function generator 20Vp-p 100kHz
Blue ChA = 441 probe
Red ChB = 442 probe
At 1 en 5MHz the 442 still recognizes the wave but at only 50% of the real value

Thanks for confirming my observation.
I would happily try an older software version, but I can't find a link on the website...

I had the same problem with a Picoscope 4444 with 442 probes and the 6.14.36 software. We found a copy of Picoscope6_r6_13_6.exe on our server and now we have NONE, 1mHz and 100kHz buttons available. We just turned "check for updates" off and are good to go.
