To get you started it comes with three new BitScope software applications:</p> <ul> <li><a href="/software/bitlib/scope/">Digital Storage Oscilloscope</a> with diagnostics.</li> <li><a href="/software/bitlib/meter/">4 Channel Digital Multimeter</a> with large displays.</li> <li><a href="/software/bitlib/sheet/">Data Acqusition Spreadsheet</a> with live updates.</li> </ul> <p>They're all BitLib based and include source so you can see exactly how they work. You can also modify them to suit your needs or use them as a starting point for your own BitScope software.</p> <p>BitLib is also ideal when integrating BitScope with third party software tools. The DAQ spreadsheet provides one example but we'll be releasing a number of others over the coming months based on your feedback. Email us at <a href="mailto:projects@bitscope.com">projects</a> and send us your requests.</p> <a name="ddr-exp"></a><hr size="1"> <p style="float:left">2006-10-01</p> <p style="float:right">(06100104)</p> <br style="clear:both"> <div class="right"><a href="/software/dso/replay/"><img title="DSO Data Recorder" src="/news/img/42.gif" alt="DDR Reset" vspace="4" hspace="4"></a></div> <h1>DSO 1.3 Offline Replay and Display Export</h1> <p>This major release introduces new features for data sharing and analysis, especially useful in collaborative or educational environments.</p> <p>It also includes user interface improvements such as <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=channel#range">auto range</a>, <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=channel#range">normalize</a>, <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=channel#calibration">input offset</a> control and channel <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=channel#procedures">calibration</a>.</p> <p>And there are many small changes like context menus for fast parameter entry, live waveform generator <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=wavegen#preview">previews</a>, intelligent parameter "toggle on click" as well as various small bug fixes.</p> <p>However the most significant new feature is <b>Offline Replay</b>.</p> <p>It is now possible to use BitScope DSO on a PC <i>without a <a href="/product/">BitScope</a></i>.</p> <p>This means you can replay, inspect and analyse waveforms, logic and spectra previously captured with BitScope, or otherwise synthesized, on a PC which has no BitScope connected. </p> <p>The DSO is able to do this because <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=recorder">DDR</a> can now effectively emulate any BitScope.</p> <p>By sharing <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=recorder#files">DDR files</a> with colleagues, students or customers you can now communicate precise analyses and flexible reference information for comparison with their own test results.</p> <p>The second new and related feature is <b>Display Export</b>. </p> <p>With the click of a button you can now save the DSO display to a file for use with Word or other documents, the web or sent as email attachments. It is even possible to replay a DDR file and save the displays derived from it, all without a BitScope connected.</p> <p>Download <a href="/download/?p=1&i=049+050">this release</a> to try it on your own PC. It's free of charge.</p> <p>Visit the <a href="/software/dso/replay/">Offline Replay DSO Tutorial</a> page to find a range of interesting example files.</p> <p>As always, please <a href="mailto:dso@bitscope.com">email us</a> any feedback you have about this software.</p> <a name="ddr"></a><hr size="1"> <p style="float:left">2006-03-24</p> <p style="float:right">(03062103)</p> <br style="clear:both"> <div class="right"><a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=recorder"><img title="DSO Data Recorder" src="/news/img/39.png" alt="DDR Reset" vspace="4" hspace="4"></a></div> <h1>DSO 1.2.1 inc. DDR + WIDE Production Release</h1> <p>After extensive testing, feedback and bugfixes, the DDR + WIDE release is now available as a standard feature of BitScope DSO.</p> <p>Our thanks go to all our dedicated users who reported some subtle bugs and made various suggestions. Lots of small improvements have been made in response to your feedback such as pop-up menus on the timebase and zoom controls, "greyed" buttons when the end of a range is reached and user selectable sample rates.</p> <p>We've fixed a range of bugs including one affecting concurrent waveform generation and capture on some BS3xx model scopes as well as some small display glitches.</p> <p>The DSO Data Recorder and WIDE display engine are now both standard features of the DSO with this release and a complete <a href="/software/dso/guide/1.3/?p=recorder">DDR Manual</a> is also now available as part of the DSO online guide.</p> <p>Download the production release <a href="/download/?p=1&i=045+046">here</a> and feel free to <a href="mailto:dso@bitscope.com">email us</a> your feedback !</p> <hr size="1"> <p>2005-10-18</p> <a href="/software/dso/?p=notes"><img title="BitScope DSO Data Recorder" src="13.jpg" alt="BitScope DSO Data Recorder" width="128" align="right" vspace="2"></a> <h1>DSO Data Recorder (DDR + WIDE)</h1> <p>For anyone looking for a powerful captured data export capability check out this latest release !</p> <p>The <a href="/software/dso/">BitScope DSO</a> now includes a new <b>DSO Data Recorder</b> (aka DDR) capable of recording and replaying any combination of analog and logic channels selected for display by the DSO.</p> <p>Of considerable benefit to anyone using third-party analysis software or spreadsheets, DDR uses the ubiquitous CSV file format for seamless data transfer between different software applications and computing platforms.</p> <p>Also included in this release is <b>Waveform Intuitive Display Engine</b> (aka WIDE) designed for speed and "intuitive" waveform and logic displays.
