I have a 1054Z and use it in a pretty basic manner, but when I want to take screenshots, I find that the Ultrascope software is super crashy. I'm on Win7 64bit. It basically crashes almost every time I run it. I can restart it but it's irritating.
All I need to do is take screenshots, is there a quick way to do that over USB without having to use Ultrascope?
- setquk 8y agoUltrascope is crap. I’m using lxi-tools and Ethernet to capture screenshots. It’s a command line tool. I run it in WSL on windows 10. https://github.com/lxi-tools/lxi-tools https://github.com/lxi-tools/lxi-tools Or USB stick. But that requires carting the stick around.
- andrewcchen 8y agoYou can take screenshots by plugging a usb stick into the scope
- brokenmachine 8y agoI know, but I'd much rather do it from my PC than muck around with flashdrives.
- sannee 8y agoThere is a python library+utility which can take screenshots over Ethernet - https://github.com/pklaus/ds1054z https://github.com/pklaus/ds1054z
- brokenmachine 8y agoThanks for that, ATM I don't have an ethernet cable near to the scope, would be easier for me via USB, but I might have to run a cable there later on. I'm surprised there seems to be no stable way to do it by USB.
