Re: edy555 release 0.7.0-20200223 #firmware


 

Hello,

If one uses *nanovnasaver*, what do you think it will be the best firmware?

I am fortunate to have a small PC at my desk to use with the VNA.

Hot on the heels of his beta 0.8 firmware release for the NanoVNA,
DiSlord has followed it up with an additional beta firmware release which
adds user selectable averaging via a "DISPLAY->BANDWIDTH" menu. Bandwidth
can be set to 1 kHz, 300 Hz, 100 Hz, 30 Hz or 10 Hz. As any who has used a
commercial VNA can tell you, using averaging can smooth out your data but
at the expense of sl-o-o-owing down sweep rates. Truly no such thing as a
free lunch.

Latest beta is located at

This is a preview of where the next edy555 firmware release is headed.

I thought there were no more tricks in the firmware developers bags to
add more features to the limited flash space of the NanoVNA-H. That was t
the main reason I begin gravitating towards the NanoVNA-H4 and NanoVNA-F.
DiSLord's re-write and optimization of the NanoVNA's firmware, shows the
NanoVNA-H is not quite ready to relinquish its crown. Looks like the -H4
and -F will be behind the curve until the upcoming edy555 firmware releases
are ported to them.

Per DiSLord:
"When you drop below 1kHz, the scanning speed is significantly
reduced, and the responsiveness of the menu drops, but is generally
workable."

Also as previously noted, this beta firmware release is not for the
NanoVNA-H4 or NanoVNA-F.
