You can now use the shortcut from your desktop to start up Candle. We do not suggest running Candle off of a USB or removable drive as this causes errors.Īfter you have placed the folder where you want it to be stored, open the folder and find the primary file, Candle.exe and create a shortcut to your desktop as shown below: Once the file has been unzipped, you can place the folder which contains Candle on your Desktop or other location on the C: drive. zip to a designated folder, and then try running the file from there.

CHANGES: - setup highest voltage-divider on start (5V) - implemented trigger-hack BUGS/FIXES needed: - Make trigger work with slope-function (QT button action) - Make trigger work on start up (it is not working on the first start or when changing trigger source channel, you always have to click on the small trigger-level-arrow once to make it work) - Disable/Hide Buffersize Menu (action is actually commented out), as Buffersize is set according to timebase - Make trigger more solid to noise (dunno how) - Make trigger work with fast risetimes/transients (triggering on square-wave is not really working well) I added some comments to the parts i changed.How to Install Candle/GRBLControl for Windows 8 or Later Here's the possible trigger approach: EDIT: Obsolete Compiled: Source: See: (buudai-bm102)/msg911658/#msg911658 for actual code It is implemented in buudai_control.cpp Works for rising signals. If you can live with an absolutely shitty software you can work with. My reason for buying were the 200MSa, 'cause I wanted a "real" 20 MHz scope. Result: At logic level you need an external 1/10 divider. voltage (DC) sometimes 1.6 V, sometimes 3.6 V, max possible neg. possible positive voltage is ~6V, the max neg. The greatest disadvantages IMHO are the input dividers. Sometimes CH2 is very noisy, until now I couldn't evaluate the reasons. Have a look on my oics above, they are connected to pins 1 and 4 on the bottom row. I guess that the module s only an enclosure for the two lines. I do not think, the external trigger will change anything, it's just another base.
CH2 can only be triggered together with CH1, a lonely CH2 is running to Mars. Nevertheless it's usable for timebase > 1 us, on shorter base the signal is runnin' thru. Sadly it's not very stable as I'm used in former times with my old analog Hameg. A couple of months ago I thought exactly the same direction Some words to the trigger.
