 Thu Mar 14 03:43:49 2019, Deepak Samuel, How to buy DRS evaluation kit
|
Dear Stefan,
I have emailed drs4@psi.ch a couple of times regarding the pricing of the evaluation kits for academic use in India and have not received any
reply and hence writing in this forum. Could you please help me in this? |

The Display window in the Oscilloscope software shows averaging capabilites but I have not been able to activate these. Is it possible to activate averaging
with the existing oscilloscope software? Thanks |

Dear Steffan:
We have been able to use the DRS4 using a Raspberry Pi but we have not been able to use the external trigger. What we are doing is basically
comment out the code shown below (downloaded from PSI) to use the hardware trigger and uncomment the code to use the external trigger. We have not been |

Hi,
I am considering using the DRS4 evaluation board as an ADC card for the wire chamber in the physics lab (VP) experiment at ETH. However, the wire
chamber has 8 outputs, so I would need to have two of such boards. Is it possible to synchronise them, online or offline? From the website, it looks

Hi,
Does anyone has a program that converts a binary file from drsosc output to a ROOT tree format? |

Hi,
I would like to save the waveform in a binary format. When I click Save then change format from xml to dat in the menu. I still get xml format
but with dat extension. |

|
Dear Stefan,
I am trying to synchronise the readout of two test boards, one is the DRS4 test board, the other is PSI46 test board (used for the readout of CMS
pixel chip) for the offline analysis. I think that the most secure way to accomplish this is to pass a trigger number from one test board to the other. |

Dear Stefan
Is there an easy way to reduce sampling speed below 0.7 GSPS? I would like to record traces up to 5 usec long.
Thank you |

Dear Stefan
Last month I was using a DRS4 evaluation board to digitise the signal from the charged particles in piM1 beam line at PSI. The beam in piM1 is
a mixture of pions with a small percentage of protons. Pions are close to minimum ionising and were producing the signals on the order of 250 mV (Landau |

Hi everyone,
Has anyone tried to synchronize 2 (two) DRS4 evaluation boards readout by the same computer? I have read about some attempts on this board in the
past, but I do not know if they have succeeded. If yes, could you share your experience and/or software. |

Dear Stefan,
I daisy-chained two boards (master sn#: 2514 - slave sn#: 2513) each with 2048 samples. However, when I use drsosc and put check mark in "configure
multi-board daisy-chain" I see only 1024 samples. Namely, the first 1024 samples, the last part is missing. When I remove this check mark, I |

Hi Stefan
Any chance you have time to fix the software for multiboard configuration with 2048 samples each. I tried 5.0.5, but drsosc still shows
only half of the waveform. |
