Hi,
again thank you for the previous help. I will start building the simple PSU next week.
This question is little on the edge whether it belongs here. But Scope are used in electronics, so there I go.
Now I am back to my main project, which is to make Linux-software for the Velleman PCSGU250 USB-Scope. This has been uphill battle because I not that fluent with C++, the user interface lib Qt (Nokia.com) is new to me and I don't know the scopes very well. But as this is totally my hobby there is no time limit, so I learn as I go. Now I have done the channels and trigger and part of the Function generator.
The part of the scope I don't have the faintest idea yet, is the Bode Plotter. I would really need some hand holding with it. Maybe there is some free code somewhere to do it, which I can borrow. I tried to google but it is too mathematical to my taste (I am middle of re-learning math). The bode plotter seems quite important part of scope so I would like to implement it.
Any help, comments and web-links appreciated. If I have to make it all by myself it is going to take 2-3 months to learn, I think....
Btw. the software will be free with either GPL license. But I might consider paying something for help....if that's the only way.
Best Regards Kari
Below what the Windows-version gives as instructions.
--------------------------------------------------------
BODE BLOTTER This text is lifted from the Windows-version - it is not implemented yet
To get the amplitude plot
- Connect the output of the Function Generator to the input of the device under test.
- Connect the output of the device under test to CH1 of the Oscilloscope.
To get the phase plot:
- Connect the output of the Function Generator also to CH2 of the oscilloscope.
- From the View menu select Phase Plot.
To use the option "Normalize Output by input".
- Connect the output of the Function Generator also to CH2 of the oscilloscope.
- From the Options Menu select Normalize Output by input.
- See Help for more information.
