I hope no one spoils your fun by telling you how it was done.
Was slow sampling mode relevant to your case or did you just set for single trigger? And was that how it was done, anyway?2/ Secondly, In order to reach the maximum sampling rate with the maximum time window the slow sampling mode must not be activated. This option is available in menu Tools > Preference > Sampling. We must take care that transition time scale is higher than the one intended to be used.
3/ The single trigger mode has to be activated otherwise the memory available is half what is possible.
Thank you for your kind words and for not spoiling the fun. I won’t be able to replicate your CAN signal because my car is a 1996 pre-CAN, pre-OBDII vehicle, but I have a signal generator as well as a demo board given to me by most generously by Fluke Europe Technical Support that will do just as well. You are so right: I learn and remember things far better by finding out for myself, and no amount of reading or watching videos can provide those now-why-does-that-happen moments, which expose the gaps and cloudiness in one’s knowledge, and which only happen when one is left to make mistakes and discoveries and where finding the answer to one question raises another 2 questions along the way.Autonerdz wrote:Martin,
When you duplicate the capture you will know how it was set up.
You seem like the kind of guy that enjoys a challenge and will get the most out of the chase. I'm not gong to spoil that for you. Not many dive into the scope performance like you have and I am sure you will get more satisfaction and practice in the process. Enjoy
