BitScope DSO Version 1.3 Release

DSO 1.3 Offline Replay & Display Export

Using the newly released DSO Data Recorder Version 1.3 it is now possible replay, inspect and analyse waveforms and logic previously captured with BitScope on a PC which has no BitScope connected.

It's ideal for sharing information with colleagues, students or customers.

Send data recordings as DDR files to others and they can replay and analyse them "live". It's as if your BitScope is connected to their PC.

Alternatively use your own reference recordings for comparison or benchmarking new test results.

Export your data as images and embed them in word or other documents, post them on the web or send them as email attachments. You can even sequence exported images to create animations.

Download DSO Version 1.3 and try it yourself. We've posted a set of example files to explore.

For what you can expect to see, check out Display Export and the offline replay DSO tutorial.
