This module provides an introductory overview of the PicoScope 6 automotive software interface, covering the essential controls and functions needed to get up and running with the new software.

Topics covered include:

  • Customizing the toolbar by adding controls such as samples per channel
  • Navigating and using the waveform buffer (32-screen scrolling memory)
  • Zoom tools including window zoom, pan, and 100% view reset
  • Channel controls including voltage range, AC/DC coupling, and probe selection
  • Saving captures, saving images, and using print preview
  • Cursor operation for time and voltage measurements
  • Trigger modes, slope selection, pre-trigger, and post-trigger delay
  • Adding and editing on-screen measurements and notes
  • Streaming mode at longer time bases and its expanded sample capacity

Note that as this was recorded during a beta release of PicoScope 6, some features were still in development at the time of recording. Several topics mentioned are covered in greater depth in subsequent modules.
