New PicoScope 7 Automotive release (7.0.64)

19/01/21

We are pleased to announce that the latest version of PicoScope 7 Automotive, version 7.0.64, is now available to download.

New Features:

Custom probe Filtering, Auto Range & activation

Further to the introduction of our Custom probe feature here, additional work has been carried out to improve the functionally and application of the custom probe wizard entries.

Ruler “view control” added for measurements between rulers with multiple active viewports

Measurements between rulers can now be assigned to the viewport of interest thanks to the addition of a view controller within the ruler dialog box.

Select device from “Stopped” button

When loading a psdata file and clicking on the “Stopped/Running” button, the Connect Device dialog box will open where you now have the option to run in Demo Mode or with the connected Scope/Scopes.

Probe mismatch dialog to include the option “Show only when using PicoBNC+ probes”

Owners of the 4x25A PicoBNC+ scopes now have the option to select “Show only when using PicoBNC+ probes” from within the Probe Mismatch Dialog box. This will allow the user to skip the probe mismatch feature if no PicoBNC+ probes are connected to the scope.

Reset configuration warning

To prevent users from accidentally losing data, selecting “Reset Configuration” is now followed with a warning dialog box.

 

Further detailed information on the above new features can be found here, along with images and videos to support the included descriptions.

Bug Fixes:

  • Improved editing of serial decoder “search field” text entries
  • Improved editing function of custom probe “table” entries.
  • Retention of saved probe coupling feature when opening with PicoScope 7
  • Improvements across all platforms to the alignment of measurement lozenges when large mode selected
  • Degree symbol ° error corrected for Mac
  • Coil on plug probe to revert to symmetrical mV range (not kV) when selected
  • Improvements to channel label display for Linux users
  • Improved stability of input range display (within channel options button) when switching between metric and imperial measurement systems
  • Improved graph activation when running scope
  • Measurement system imperial/metric options now included for Mac and Linux
