Re: Nylon screws

Nigel Gunn, G8IFF/W8IFF
 

Mine doesn't have any nylon screws.
Brass hex spacers and black steel screws.
Look like M2.

Re: Nylon screws

 

I have 3rd screws from my 3d printer we can try. Ace hardware has a test
plate if you bring one down you can try it there. They may even have longer
ones in stock.

Re: NanoVNA-H batch processing by nVargs #test-jig

 

By popular demand, a dedicated script:

I created bash alias 'nt' for this and no longer bother using a serial terminal.
This allows using bash history to recall commands.
Of course, the same could be done for Windows cmd.exe using a one line batch file..

$ nt trace

Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

Yes I think that is worth consideration.

Re: edelay vs ELECTRICAL DELAY and other fun #internals

 

scanraw delivers uncorrected output of unlimited amount of points including
averaging over multiple points (quicker than averaging multiple scans)
NanoVNA-Q-usb-test.dfu from QRP has scanraw..

Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

alias nv='python nVargs.py'
To duplicate this, use

nVargs.py automagically resumes nanoVNA after commands...


Re: edelay vs ELECTRICAL DELAY and other fun #internals

 

This is because you're using very old firmware.
Thanks to NanoVNA-Q-usb-test.dfu,
I now see non-zero edelay (using magnification for old eyes)


Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

Thanks, QRP -

fixed, try this firmware, let me know if it works
Works for me:
$ alias nv
alias nv='python nVargs.py'
$ nv frequencies > freq.txt
$ nv data > data.txt
$ paste freq.txt data.txt > nanoVNA.s1p
$ cp nanoVNA.s1p ../../GitHub/oristo/altervista/gnuplot/
G:\Gateway\GitHub\oristo\altervista\gnuplot>grep s1p plotsmith.p
replot "nanoVNA.s1p" u 2:3 w l title "USB test 50-900000"
gnuplot> load 'plotsmith.p'

you can press PAUSE, then connect usb and Get Data from NanoVNA software:

Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

Nice finding. It really don't works. This is a bug :)


Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

I considered to eliminate one calibration save position to get 2 data storage positions and it will need store/load/live menu commands
Would that work?


Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

If one of the firmware developers make a function for
it, I'll of course support it in the software in a future release. :-)
OK, I'm not sure how to contact them to request this.
Pick a release and try it, e.g.




If latest firmware release does not behave as wanted,
then add an issue, e.g.

Hi Rune,

OK, I'm not sure how to contact them to request this.

I'd also like to be able to save stuff to the Nano VNA, as previously discussed, the "data" command downloads data from the nanoVNA to the PC, but there is no reciprocal command to upload data from the PC to the nanoVNA, which would be very useful.

Yes, to import the file into Excel, select delimited and select space as the delimiting character.

Then save in whatever format you like.

Re: Storing and recalling scan later via Nano VNA saver (or similar) #internals #consolecommands

 

Oops, Rune is correct:

If one of the firmware developers make a function for it,
USB shell hangs while PAUSE SWEEP is active on touchscreen
before reconnecting USB, so cannot communicate.
