PC software with "CW" function


 

Hello,

To use my NanoVNA-H as a generator. can i find a PC software using the a command similar to the "CW" manual function ?

Thank you for your help.

Rudi,

I have been "lazy" enough to ignore the CW setting. Just used center
frequency and zero span, as on other pro analyzers I have used before.
Being lazy requires twice the effort.

Did things so much in a hurry I sidestepped CW

Jose,

Thank you for your message.? I tried the "0" span solution but nanovna-saver refuse

a null value for the span.

==============

Rudy,
Another solution is to use PuTTY or other terminal program to control the CW frequency of the NanoVNA:


ch> sweep center 50000000
ch> sweep span 0
ch> sweep center 75000000
ch> sweep center 100000000

1. Above I've used PuTTY to set the NanoVNA center frequency to 50 MHz, and the span to 0 Hz to put the NanoVNA in CW mode.
2. Once in CW Mode you can use "sweep center <frequency in Hz)" to change subsequent CW frequencies (75 and 100 MHz above).

If your terminal program has scripting, then you can automate setting the CW mode and sweeping frequencies.

When I checked the accuracy of the internal ref I just put in center freq and nothing else and it came up at what I put in, no sweeo.


 

Herb,

Thank you for your answer and help.

Unfortunately, i can send commands but they are too many characters and PuTTY stops sending

to the NanoVNA.

May be, my FW version " 0.8.4.6 - 96kHz ADC, 800Hz, sweep_points 201, by DiSlord " is not compatible with serial ?

I will continue to search a solution.

Best regards,

Rudi


 

Thank you for your aswer. As i wrote to Herb, i should have problems to send commands to the NanoVNA.

Regards,

Rudi
