Requirements

Supported Oscilloscopes
(some)

· STM32 DIY Oscilloscopes
· Hantek 6022BE

First Connection

After installing the App, connect the USB Oscilloscope with the OTG cable. The App should detect automatically the Oscilloscope and ask the Authorization to use the USB Port. This Authorization may be asked twice and you can remember the choice if you don’t want this window show again at the next connection.

If the everything works correctly you should see the signal on the App screen.

If the device is not supported then a message appear.

For WiFi devices (like Hantek iDSO1070) first connect the phone to the device WiFi network, then open the App. The App should connect to the Wifi oscilloscope automatically.

Typical setup with micro-USB to Type-B OTG short cable.

If the device is not recognized

1. Use short USB Cables like those used for external CD-ROM readers for laptops. In many case the USB cable provided with the device is not good to be used with phone.

2. Power it interdependently with a 5V source, some phone has not enough USB current to power the Scope. The original Hantek cable with a double USB Cable is good to use (1 Black USB for the Signal, 1 Red USB for the Power).

2. Use the App USB Device Info to check if your phone/tablet have the driver for the oscilloscope. If once connected the oscilloscope this software don’t show the device in the «ANDROID» Tab, then the oscilloscope cannot work with the phone.

3. Check with another USB-OTG cable since in many cases it is not good or suitable. Avoid to use direct rigid adapters and try to use adapters with a short cable.

4. For phones with USB Type-C connector (Android Version >= 6), the USB power could not be enough for the oscilloscope, so you can use a powered USB Hub (sample in the picture: UNITEK 4-Ports USB3.0 Y-3089).

Setting the Rate

The Rate allow you to set how many points (or Samples) you want to use to scan the input signal. This value is also related to the maximum frequency you suppose to find for your signal. Assuming your signal is a Sine like shape you need theoretically 2 points inside its period to see it, but practically (since the software connect the dots with a line to show the shape), you need at least 10 points inside the period.

So with a rate of 100 KS/s (Kilo Samples / second) you can see well waves till 10KHz. If these waves have faster variations just rise the rate level. Square signals has faster variations than the nominal frequency, so they may requires higher sampling rates.

Supported Rates & Sampling (sample for Hantek 6022)

Normal Mode Rates

25KS/s, 50KS/s, 100KS/s, 200KS/s, 500KS/s, 1MS/s, 4MS/s, 8MS/s, 16MS/s, 48MS/s

Roll Mode Rates

500Sa/s, 1KSa/s, 2KSa/s, 8KSa/s

# Samples acquired

512 (Basic Version)
1024 (Full Version)
4096 (Low Rate — Roll Mode)

Related Issues

If the signal is not stable on the screen sometimes it is because its frequency is very low respect the Sampling Rate, so during one (very fast) scan the Scope cannot see and recognize one complete waveform. In this case just try to lower the Sampling Rate.

Roll Mode

Roll Mode works for low sampling rates and allow to see the signal taking shape in real-time on the screen in continous and unlimited refreshes from left to right. It is still possible to use rulers and take measures while the signal update in real-time.

Setting the Channels

Each Channel can be switched on/off and can be set regarding the maximum input signal and the probe you use. The maximum voltage range for these digital Oscilloscope is usually around ±5V (from -5V to +5V) but it depend from the device. The may hardware have also an internal amplifier that allow to use lower voltage ranges (like from -0.5V to 0.5V).

Note: The second channel is available just in the Full Version.

Auto Voltage

Selecting the button AUTO the software automatically set the input voltage selector according to the signal. This function is limited just to high voltage ranges. Lower voltage selection should still come manually.

AC/DC Selection

Selecting DC the signal goes to screen AS-IS (with AC and DC components), selecting AC the signal pass into a filter (that can be hardware or software according the device) so that on screen and in computation is considered just the AC component.

Probes Settings

In case you need to measure stronger signals the Probe should have a switch that allow to attenuate the input signal. If you change the switch of your probe to the position x10, the input signal will be attenuated by a factor 10. This means that using the Oscilloscope range ±5V with a probe x10 you can see signals up to ±50V (50V / 10 = 5V). In visualization the App already calculate this scaling factor, so if you use a probe x10 just select in the Channel configurations the factor x10 and play with the voltage ranges (it will show you the possible range you can select).

On the market are available different kind of probes (also associated to different units like Ampere. ). You can add or download new probes in the Settings -> Probes panel. DIY probe are available in the list with link to instruction how to build it. Probes configuration is saved locally on the phone and is not lost in case of app reinstallation. You can find/backup or restore your probes configuration by accessing the file in the folder: /Download/HScope/Probes.cfg . HScope will automatically read and save the probes configuration from this file.

Signal out of scale

If the signal maximum value is higher than the selected Voltage Range and the Auto Voltage is not enabled, then the App detect this and write the message «Overscale!» on the top of the screen.
Sometime you may want to see the amplitude of a signals much lower than the maximum value, so you may want to use a shorter scale and let the maximum to go overscale. For this disable the AUTO voltage and select the voltage range manually.

Scale VS Resolution & Error

The Hantek has a resolution of 8-bit (256 possible values in the voltage range). Having the voltage range and the maximum possible values in this range (256), it is possible to calculate the maximum error in the measure (Quantization Error). So for reduce the reading errors it is better to use the scale mostly near to the maximum of the signal. The Quantization Error is calculated according the used range and is showed in the statistics.

Setting the Trigger

The Trigger allow you to see the signal stable on the screen since the Trigger set what is the starting point for drawing the signal. Even if the input signal can be periodic in some way, on each scan its position can be found translated since the acquisition time is random and it cannot be synchronous with the period of the input signal.
The starting point for a signal can be identified with:
— a Voltage Level (Trigger Level);
— a tendency (or Slope) which means if the signal is passing the Voltage Level going up or down.

Once decided the channel to use for apply the Trigger — with the selector CH1 or CH2 — you can set the SLOPE .
At the bottom you can find the Auto (AVG) button which simply set the Trigger Level as the middle level of the input voltage.
If you want to set the Trigger Level manually just disable the Auto button and move the Trigger Level that is showed on the screen using the left part of the screen.

Single Sweep function

The Single Sweep function allow you to freeze the image on the screen when the Trigger is found in the signal. This function is used to search when the signal present strange behaviors like spikes. For example you can just set a manual trigger on an high level that the signal usually doesn’t reach. Then enable the Sweep and when your signal reach the Trigger level the image on the screen will be friezed, allowing you to see the moment of the spike.
After the freezing you can continue the scanning pressing the Unlock button.

More about Triggers

There are many known ways to «Trigger a Signal» but currently the App allow to use just the most simple kind.

Limitations

This trigger in most of the devices is implemented by the software since the hardwares doesn’t implement it. In case of Software Trigger the Single Sweep function cannot work at high fequencies since it depends from the acquired data which is just a little part of the total signal data at high frequencies (not all samples can be transfered via USB to the software). Since we can acquire just few parts of the Signal, when a spike happen during a reading, it is detected from the software and the Single Sweep function can show it. If the spike happen when the device is not acquiring data, then nor the hardware nor the App can detect it.

Measuring Tools

Is it possible to activate one or two cursors just pressing with the finger at the bottom of the screen. Activating two cursors is it possible to read the frequency associated to the period selected. For removing the cursors just push them out of the screen (to the left or to the right).

More info on provided data

The rulers show also the signal amplitude at the selected point. This value is calculated with Sinc Interpolation and it is more exact than just a middle level between 2 samples. For more info refer to Interpolation section in this guide

Statistics

Activating the button STATS is possible to have some statistic for each channel. Available statistics:
· V_MAX / V_MIN / V_RMS
· f / Δt for top frequency

FFT Generalities

Clicking on FFT button is possible to see the rapresentation of the signal in the Frequency Domain only for the first Channel. The range of visible frequencies on screen can be selecting zooming-in or out with the fingers on the screen.

Activating the STATS button is possible to see the top 3 frequencies in the selected frequencies range. These values are corresponding to the computed FFT values and not to the real values that can be checked better with the ruler.

FFT Windows

It is possible to select between standard windows and Flat Top windows for the FFT. Flat Top windows (HFT90D and HFT248D) are used when is required to determine the exact amplitude of a sinusoidal component in the input signal. They have bandwidths W_3dB of about 3 . . . 5 bins, roughly twice as wide as non-flat-top windows with comparable sidelobe suppression, but very low maximum amplitude error e_max.

Interpolation

When the Scope acquire a signal we receive just samples but we don’t know what’s the signal shape between the samples. We can just connect the dots (Linear Interpolation) or better we can reconstruct the original signal according the Whittaker–Shannon formula (Sinc Interpolation).

In the Setting you can choose the samples interpolation. Enabling the DOTS button for each Channel you can see clearly the samples when zooming the signal.

Limitations

The Sinc Interpolation is the perfect reconstruction of the original signal but due to software limitation it is valid under this condition:

f_MAX
This is the equivalent of (at least) 4 samples inside the wave period.

FAQ / Myths

My signal is not a pure Sinusoid, can I use the Sinc Interpolation?

My signal is square but the Sinc Interpolator don’t show me as a square!

Modules — Generalities

Additional software modules can be accessed clicking on the top icons on the right bar. They are:
— Automotive Module , for fast rates long period recordings. Instructions here.
— Voltmeter Module , for quick DC analisys and low rates long period data logging

Other Modules are available within the Oscilloscope part and they are:
— XY Plot , for comparing signals
— Audio Module , for listening the input signal with the phone speaker and compute Amplifiers Power. Instructions here.
— Math Module , for performing channels mathematical operations

Licenses

Additional modules can be purchased from Settings panel -> License.

XY Plot

When both channel are ON is possible to use the XY Plot . 5 periods of both channels are showed on the left with data about their amplitude and frequency.

The phase shift is also calculated with the Lissajous methodand it is valid just for Sinusoidal Waveforms with same frequency.
If you want to calculate the time delay for an arbitrary signal from 2 points of a circuit under analysis, just press compute and in yellow you will see this value obtained from the Cross-Correlation of the signals from the 2 Channels.

This module is available by purchasing the Full Version if the device has 2 Channels.

Module — Voltmeter

The Voltmeter Module allow to simply access to the signal main values and to have a Data Logger for the desired value.

The Data Logger require a Device License to fully work. Data from both channels can be recorded at same time or it can be started/stopped at different times, and it can be exported as CSV file. The recorded data is that one selected from the main LCD. Data logger graph show minimum and maximum values of the current showed data and it can be zoomed and shifted with the fingers.

Calibration

Calibration parameter are showed and can be adjusted just when the oscilloscope is connected on the phone. For entering in the Calibration panel go in the Settings->Calibration.
For each channel is possible to calibrate the Zero Level (b) (so that when the probe is connected to the GND the result of the measure is 0 Volts) and the Multiplier factor (m) . Assuming the ADC measured values are on a straight line the Multiplier factor allow to adjust the inclination of the ADC line according the equation y=(x+b)m .
First it is necessary to calibrate the Zero Level, then the Multiplier Factor.
By selecting the button Factory Reset the calibration parameters are set according pre-tested parameters on the specific device. These values shall be prefered unless the measured values are very far from the real ones.

Notes

For some of the supported oscilloscope it has been found that calibration parameters can vary a lot according the selected voltage level.
Depending from the firmware implementation the calibration parameters could also depend form the sampling rate, however the developed firmwares for HScope allow the ADC output response do not depend from the sampling rate.
Unless the oscilloscope manufactures change components in successive productions, the Factory Reset should provide accurate data.

Graphic Quality

In the Settings you can set also the Graphic quality for the lines that represent the signal. The Decay Phosphor effect allow to keep trace on the screen of the previous scans so that the wave line is composed from many superimposed waves as happen in the old oscilloscopes. This effect allow also to see better the Scope noise due to sampling since the result will be a sum of waves between a minimum and maximum value.

FPS/SPS

FPS stay for Frame Per Second. Enabling this option in the Settings is possible to know how many acquisitions are currently taken by the Scope (SPS: Scans Per Second) and how many time the screen is refreshed (FPS). This number may vary from device and rate settings. Free Version of the App has a limited FPS.

Data Export

Pressing on Export Data is possible to export the current acquired data in CSV format. The exported data include the Scope configuration, list of values acquired, and the raw data acquired. The CSV include these data also in direct array format to be imported in other sofware or to be used with Matlab.

Keyboard Control
