One shot digital triggers

Is there any progress update on adding one-shot, digital triggers to the MSO?

Maybe I’m not typical, but in my use, I’m typically looking for analog anomalies when something odd occurs. I’ll set up the analyzer to monitor a GPIO pin or some other digital signal and then trigger that when something strange occurs. Then I’ll look to the analog probes to see what was going on when the blip occurred. I’m not typically using the MSO purely as an oscilloscope.

That said, just the other day, I did need a pure oscilloscope, but unfortunately, I needed to track the voltage difference between two probes. So, any progress on adding math functions (like subtract)?

Back to the digital triggers. I also look forward to the day they appear, as it means I won’t have to swap between the MSO and the Logic Pro just because I need to do some digital-only, analyzing. I will be able to use the MSO for everything.

@durian Thanks for following up on these features!

Ah yes, we do advertise in the software that Digital Single Shot is “coming soon.”

Digital Single Shot would arriive before Math functionality, but let me check on a better timeline for those and I’ll get back to you.

Thanks @timreyes , I look forward to hearing what you learn regarding the features timeline.

Hi @timreyes,

I hope you are doing well. Were you able to get an update on the timelines for single shot digital triggers and analog math functions (or at least subtracting one probe from another)?

Thanks,

mike

@durian Sorry I haven’t provided a release schedule for you! Digital one shot is likely to get into planning soon, but I unfortunately cannot provide a date just yet.

What I can say is that Digital one shot is planned to be implemented before Math functions.

Hi @timreyes ,

I hope you’re doing well. It’s been a little while now. Do you have anything new to report regarding the timeline for this feature?

@durian Thank for following up on this! Let me check in with the team here to see if we can provide an estimated release date for you.

Hi @durian,

It’s still in work, and we actually added single-shot digital trigger to the new headless API for Logic MSO: Headless logic2-automartion support for Logic MSO!

Under the hood, we’re replacing the data processing pipeline for MSO, in order to fix the underlying issues that were blocking single shot digital trigger. The new headless API is already using that new pipeline, but there is a lot more work left to do in Logic 2 to switch over to it. We were supposed to be working on that this month, but work related to ongoing supply chain issues have swamped us this month. I expect to get back on this at the start of next month.

Thank you for the update.
