Hi,

What type of time trend plots are you talking about? Are you trying to do time trend of measurements?

A screenshot would be useful.

Hi Pablo,

No, I don't believe this is possible.

Hi Donald,

Sorry about the delay in answering you, I've been discussing this matter with my colleagues and it has been significantly delayed by the lack of a single standard for 1-Wire.

From my reading of the DS199x datasheet, I believe you are correct that the recovery time between bits (tREC) can be arbitrarily long without causing a framing error.

I'm working with our internal resources to get this changed in a future software update.

For a specific model recommendation I would need more information, like:
1) Required bandwidth.
2) Output voltage requirements (and into what load impedance).
3) Number of channels needed.
4) Required record length (if using arb mode).

I would also suggest looking at this page on our current selection of AFG's: https://www.tek.com/en/products/signal-generators/arbitrary-function-generator

Yes, some of our AFG's have a trigger out (depends on the model).

I don't see why not just output a square wave instead for your use case.

Hi Big Jim,

The TBS1kC does not have the ability to stream waveform data (some of our other scopes do have this capability with the curvestream command).
You'll have to poll repeated curve queries to get the data that you want.

Here's a few recommendations:

1) Disable the FFT on the scope and do it on the PC instead (make sure to apply a window function if needed), this will likely speed up the process a lot as processing FFT's on the scope is relatively slow compared to a modern PC, especially if you run the scope communication and data processing on different threads.

2) Set the encoding to binary and data width to 1 ( I see you're already doing this).

3) Set the sample rate to the lowest that you can get away with.

Hi Hendrik,

There isn't really an official recommendation here, you'll just have to try it and see.

If you can install both the old and new version, that might be your best bet.

Hi,

1) Currently TSU CSV's are not compatible with what the scope expects (that will hopefully change in the future).

2) TSU cannot save .tss files.

3) The scope should be able to recall .set, .tss and .wfm pretty reliably. .csv files will depend with how they're constructed.

You can see your old posts in your profile: https://my.tek.com/public/d6bbeab5-5256-ee11-be6f-00224802d199/forum-posts

The old forum is still up: https://forum.tek.com/

There's also several unofficial community groups going by the name of "TekScopes" or something similar.

Hi,

A long read inherently takes a long time, so you'll want to either increase your timeout time or handle the error and keep reading (or both).
