Easy programming for the DSO Quad

Kind of. Not yet Pawn bindings for the function. But maybe I’ll find time to add it soon

That would be great. Let me know if you need beta tester.

Yeah after being calibrated it should be quite accurate. Maybe one day I’ll bother porting the calibration stuff to main firmware. It’s not complex, I don’t understand how the main firmware calibration manages to suck so bad.

The one thing I noticed is that I must calibrate on battery power. If I calibrate while powered by USB it is off. Maybe gabonator1 could use the same method for calibration in the alternate firmware.

Flash is no-longer restricting, but the RAM size is. Pawn as a language is not very powerful, if there will be a more powerful version of DSO Quad one day I'd like to run Lua or Squirrel on it.

And because Pawn is interpreted, it'll always be limited to the simpler stuff. I couldn't imagine writing a complete oscilloscope app in pawn; it would simply be too slow.

What else could pawn do on the DSO?
