ysionneau | merry christmas guys o/ | 09:40 |
olofk | Woohoo!! Got a DIY oscilloscope for christmas from my girlfriend. | 20:43 |
olofk | Just sucks that I can't seem to find any linux SW to talk to it | 20:44 |
olofk | Thankfully they have released the source code for the windows driver dll. It's written in pascal, but contains 90% inline x86 assembly (I'M NOT KIDDING!!) | 20:57 |
olofk | I think I just found a document in finnish describing the protocol for one of their other devices | 21:06 |
stekern | shout if you need translation ;) | 21:06 |
olofk | stekern: You would be the first to know | 21:08 |
stekern | having a oscilloscope at home is nice | 21:12 |
stekern | I have an old HP 54501A, 100 MHz 4 channel | 21:12 |
stekern | got it for free from my previous work | 21:13 |
stekern | think it costed 5000€-10000€ new | 21:14 |
olofk | cool. Looks like a really nice one, I've always missed having a scope at home. This one has a bit more modest specs, but it would help out with stuff that my multimeter can't solve | 21:19 |
olofk | http://www.vellemanprojects.eu/products/view/?country=be&lang=en&id=411826 | 21:20 |
olofk | And I will have to build it myself which can be seen as both a good and a bad thing :) | 21:20 |
stekern | yeah, even if mine is by no mean high-end by todays measure, my needs have been modest enough for it | 21:21 |
stekern | measuring baud rates seems to be the most common ;) | 21:21 |
stekern | I'll spend the evening creating pdf's of these: http://www.lemonamiga.com/dmz/ | 21:22 |
stekern | and then put them on my kobo glo | 21:22 |
stekern | that 'my wife bought for me' as a christmas present | 21:23 |
stekern | (I ordered it and payed for it) ;) | 21:23 |
olofk | oooh. I loved those! | 21:24 |
stekern | I should have ordered two, when she realised what it was, she tried to steal it | 21:24 |
stekern | she even packaged it as a present for her | 21:24 |
olofk | I got all the issues of high score (the successor to dmz) | 21:24 |
stekern | I have a lot of them in paper bags at our summer house | 21:25 |
stekern | dmz that is | 21:25 |
stekern | I went over to 'Attack' after dmz | 21:28 |
stekern | have a bunch of those at the summer house as well | 21:29 |
olofk | Yeah, attack was good too. High score really went downhill when they tried to reinvent themselves as a men's magazine and had a lot of softporn instead of games | 21:48 |
juliusb | merry christmas all | 23:39 |
