Protocol

Starting a sampling run

The command for starting an acquisition is a USB control transfer (request type: vendor-specific, request: 0x07, value: 0xffa0, index: 0x0000, length: 9).

The 9 bytes of data:

5 Trigger mask Bit 0 is the mask for probe 0, bit 7 is the mask for probe 7. The same byte is used as trigger mask byte for bus A or bus B (only one at a time is possible).

Sample format

  • 8-bit sampling: One sample is one byte. Bit 0 is the value of probe A.7 (or B.7), bit 7 is the value of probe A.0 (or B.0).
  • 16-bit sampling: One sample consists of two bytes. Byte 0 corresponds to bus A, byte 1 corresponds to bus B. The bit assignment is the same as above.

Trigger settings

Get current firmware version

There is a command to request the current firmware version (and date) from the device. The device returns 5 bytes as response:

Byte Description Comments
0 Major firmware version Example: 0x03 means major version 3 (example version: 3.5).
1 Minor firmware version Example: 0x05 means minor version 5 (example version: 3.5).
2 Firmware date (day) Example: 0x1c means 28 (example date: 28/12/07).
3 Firmware date (month) Example: 0x0c means 12 (example date: 28/12/07).
4 Firmware date (year, two digits) Example: 0x07 means 2007 (example date: 28/12/07).

So in the example of 0x03 0x05 0x1c 0x0c 0x07 the resulting firmware version/date is 3.5 (28/12/07).
