Thanks for this, it works like a treat 👍🏻
I installed latest nivisa, latest pyvisa (py -m pip install pyvisa) and numpy.
Last I downloaded PyDSA.py directly from your repo - that is all to get it working.

I am next going to make the amplitude to be correct in dBm...at least that is the next goal. Then maybe extra waveform storage.I am glad it worked for you. It is my first contribution on GitHub and in Python.I am not sure how to make this a directory in the original location.On Jul 17, 2021 02:58, Fuchks ***@***.***> wrote: Thanks for this, it works like a treat 👍🏻 I installed latest nivisa, latest pyvisa (py -m pip install pyvisa) and numpy.

I have made some further updates.

• Python 3.9 update...syntax, call format changes, functions
• More robust scope communication
• On screen progress feedback
• Warning if scope is not triggered (used to crash)
• Warning if input signal is clipping at scope
• Can read from channel 1 or channel 2
• Peak detect information and marker on waveform
• Added autoscaling
• Scaling change and offset works for all waves on the screen
• Can store up to 7 waveforms on the screen
• Most actions can be done while acquiring
• Added clear function which removes all waves and resets averaging/max-hold
• Scale is accurate in dBm after calibration
  *Previously the absolute level was arbitrary, but relatively accurate
  *"Calibrate" is manual operation to adjust peak for a known dBm value
  *Use a sine wave of known magnitude and adjust the calibration factor for the right reading
  Note: It is on my list to make this automatic.
