Re: Trace not displayed

Turning off the Hardware acceleration fixed the problem for me, seems to be an issue with the Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics.

Vehicle Ethernet

This is not a video that's going to help you day to day, but it helps you understand what's going on under the hood and just how complex cars are becoming.

Re: Trace not displayed

Hi Steve, the new version hasn't resolved the issue. restoring the window down and maximising the window doesn't resolve the issue either. If I restore the window down, then there appears to be a very specific window size where the trace will reappear, but as soon as I try to manipulate what is disp...

Re: Trace not displayed

Hi Steve, I have attached a video of the strange behaviour, which will hopefully answer your questions. Near the end of the video when I click on "FULL" the screen did go to full screen, just the screen capture has stayed with the other screen, but the behaviour is similar in full screen. I haven't ...

Re: Interesting Function on another Scope

Hey Iver,
Yeah he uses the 3 different measurements to prove his theory, but it was the fact that the tool seemed to take the Crank reading and "process" it in some way to come up with the graph. I was intrigued about how it might do that.Is it measuring the time between each high/low reading?

Re: Interesting Function on another Scope

I don't think the Pico could break it down cylinder by cylinder like the tool in the video, but may be you could use a sync from a coil or injector to work it out for yourself from there.

Interesting Function on another Scope

I was watching a video on You tube (https://youtu.be/0Apjhg176v4) the other day and the Tech was using another brand of Scope, the scope looks like it has a very interesting function, where it took the crankshaft signal and graphed it's acceleration and deceleration (7:36 & 21:20). I know you can ki...
