Re: Firmware with arbitrary scan length


 

Erik,
could I ask you, for future versions of your firmware, to change for
example the "Board" setting in the firmware info, similarly to how Hugen
sets his up as "NanoVNA-H"?

Your scan command is incompatible with the one edy555 has provided, and I
haven't found an obvious way to distinguish them reliably from "version" or
"firmware" command results yet.

If there is a way to distinguish them, and I'm just not noticing, please do
tell :-)

Thanks,

I added one command to the eddy firmware to enable on demand scans of
arbitrary length (yes, you can scan with one million steps or much more if
you want)

Usage:
First pause the continuous scanning with "pause" and the use the "scan"
command to scan [from frequency in Hz] [increment frequency in Hz] [number
of steps]
The frequency increment step is for now an integer
The scan command outputs

start
frequency s11_real s11_imag s21_real s21_imag
done

during the scan the calibration is NOT used so the output are uncalibrated
numbers allowing alternative calibration strategies

Example:
ch> pause
ch> scan 5000000 20 5
ch> start
5000000 0.001503840 0.000420701 -0.306770563 0.018568072
