Probe measurement value SI prefix

Post by pannonius »

Hello Everyone,

Is there a possibility to implement setting of SI prefix option for probe measurement as it is done for math channel setup?
I lack the option of applying the SI prefix for measured value of probe signal. If, for example, the measured value is 0,003V, I would like to have the measured value be showed as 0,3mV or, even, 300uV. This option is present in math channel settings, but not in the probe setup. I solve this problem by setting up a math channel by formula: A i.e. the channel itself, just to have result of the measurement adjusted by SI prefix...

Can PicoTech team implement "SI prefix" option for probe setup?

Hi

In PicoScope 7 the SI prefixes should be applied automatically depending on the measured value of the signal.
You can also use custom units to force the use of an SI prefix but this can cause odd things to happen when the automatic scaling is applied such as mKV to occur where an additional prefix is added by the software
