Dear All,
when I use my Evaluation Board with some PMTs I can digitize 450 Acq/s or so. But when I want to save the waveforms the rate goes down. The Acqu. |

The reduction of rate is because you save in XML format, which is an ASCII format, so human readable, but takes long to write. If you switch to binary
format and write on a decent fast hard disk, you should get back to 450 Acq/s.

Hello!
I have a question concerning the sampling speed of the DRS4 evaluation board.
It is written in the manual that the sampling speed of DRS4 Evaluation Board is supported above 0.7 GHz. |

Mon Sep 23 09:22:52 2013, Andrzej Rychter, Sampling Frequency: DRS4 eval board
|
Is it possible to set sampling frequency at 100 MHz in DRS4 eval board? Trying to set 0.1GHz in Osci program results in around 0.7 GHz. In drscl.exe
i'm able to set freq at 0.1GHz but calibration is impossible.
Thank For Help! |

Hello,
We have been using the DRS4 evaluation board (S/N 2636) that works with the scope application. However we are trying to run the DRS4 evaluation
board remotely by modifying the drs_exam.cpp to acquire and store data continuously. |

We found a way to solve the previous problem, but right now when we try to set the input range only -0.5 to 0.5 is working. When we set the function
"SetInputRange(0.5)" for 0 to 1V the output is all zeros and with "SetInputRange(0.45)" we just get all the outputs -49.9mV.
What does that means? How to fix? |

The time channel is already calibrated in ns. So for 5 GSPS, the time scale goes from zero to 200. Concerning your other issues I will come back to you
later.

And here is the second part of your answer: When you change the input range, you have to redo the voltage calibration. Best is if you do that in the
DRSOsc program, then you see that it's working. Then start your custom program and use the same range.

Hi Rodrigo, I'm wondering how you solved your original triggering problem. We are also having trouble with collecting data continously using the
example. Thanks.

Hi,
we want to run two instances of our little DRS DAQ program but obviously the first instance started always claims all DRS boards for itself and
the other one exits with an error. The 2 boards used in the example below have the serial number # 2413 and #2414 and are v5 boards. |

I never had in mind running two systems in parallel, that's why the code claims all interfaces when started. You have to dig into the usb code which
is located in musbstd.c at function musb_open(). There you will find a line libusb_claim_interface() which requests exclusive access to the usb subsystem.
The code is there because I copied it from some standard example for the libusb library. You have to read the documentation for libusb (http://libusb.sourceforge.net/api-1.0/) and |

I don't know if it helps, but we measured the time resolution between two independendly running v3 boards using a single PC (latest software) in
Linux. (http://arxiv.org/abs/1405.4975)
You start the DRS DAQ program with only one USB board connected, first. Afterwards connect the second board and start another session. If you |

|
Many applications using the DRS4 need to measure fast rising signals, like for PMTs or MCPs. This short note shows the minimal rise-times which can be
measured with different input signal conditioning.

The evaluation board contains four passive transformers ADT1-1WT from Mini-Circuits to convert the single-ended input |

Hi Stefan,
I found DRS draw a lot of current when applied Reset after power on, and the PLL does not work properly. I believe
there was something that I misunderstood. So, what will happen when Reset is applied more than once after power on? . Though the chip worked well |
