ps6000: Possible to select unsupported Ranges #124

@alexxcons

Description

@alexxcons

The ps6000 Digitizer Block allows selecting a Range up to +/-50V

Though doing so will lead to an error during startup:

ERROR: ps6000SetChannel (chan 0): PICO_INVALID_VOLTAGE_RANGE - The voltage range is not supported or is invalid.

According to chapter 2.10 of the the ps6000 programming guide, this Range is indeed not supported by the scope.

So we should restrict the options as well in our ps6000 block:

  • 50mV to 20V when coupling is set to AC_1M
  • 50mV to 5V when coupling is set to DC_50R
  • ??? when coupling is set to DC_1M
  • special: ps6407 scopes generally can only measure via a 100mV Range and only via coupling DC_50R
