Hey All, We recently posted a new version of WaveForms Live which ads some new features. This blog post lists all the changes in the update.

Hey Inobu, Thanks for the feedback on the videos! There is some additional documentation on the resource center here that you might find useful: https://reference.digilentinc.com/reference/instrumentation/analog-discovery-2/start Do you have any specific ideas on videos or documentation that you think might be helpful? I want to create the most useful documentation possible so I love to get requests and feedback directly from users. Kaitlyn

Hey Paolo, I'm glad you found my videos helpful! I've been working on other projects, but if you have any other ideas for videos that you would find helpful let me know. Kaitlyn

Hey Lee Leduc, WaveForms is a desktop application so it won't work in a browser. However, WaveForms Live runs in a browser and is accessible via WaveFormsLive.com. WaveForms Live does not work with the Analog Discovery 2 but is compatible with the OpenScope MZ. Kaitlyn

Hi @Old Printer, If you are interested in adding knobs, this project uses LabVIEW to add knobs to the Analog Discovery. It should provide you with, at least a place to start. https://reference.digilentinc.com/learn/instrumentation/tutorials/ad2-adding-knobs/start

What is the maximum operating temperature of the Analog Discovery 2? Is there an ideal temperature range for accuracy, or is it just recommended to re-calibrate at different temperatures.

Hi uminded, The theory of course still applies but you will have to adjust labs because of the differences between the Openscope and Analog Discovery 2. Some of the labs will have to be adjusted for speed and voltage limitations, and some of the labs will be different because the Openscope tools are not the same as Analog Discovery 2. For example the RC circuit forced response lab has to have the resistor and capacitor values adjusted due to the speed and voltage limitations differing from the AD2. Another example is the Openscope with WaveForms Live has a Bode plot, so you can see the amplitude response, but not the phase response. Since the course is written for Analog Discovery 2 with WaveForms 2015 you'll also see differences in the software instructions. You can view the differences between the devices here. I hope that made sense, let me know if you have any other questions! Kaitlyn

Hi Dave, We're getting that mistake fixed right away. Thanks for letting us know and I apologize for the confusion that it caused! Kaitlyn

Hello, I copied and pasted the code that is presented here into WaveForms and it wouldn't run. I also tried changing scope to scope1. Is there something missing? Kaitlyn

Thanks jwnall, That tutorial was written by one of our interns. You can find that tutorial and similar tutorials for all the tools on our wiki https://reference.digilentinc.com/reference/instrumentation/analog-discovery-2/start?redirect=1.

Hi YangQi, To program the Basys 3 via JTAG you don't need a JTAG programming cable as the programming circuitry is located on board, the missing portion of the schematic. The methods for programming the Basys 3 are described in the Basys 3 programming guide. For more help getting started there are lots of tutorials and a getting started guide on the resource center.

Hi there, We also have videos detailing installation of WaveForms 2015 located here. Kaitlyn

Hi Aaron, Let us know if you find a solution on the chipKIT forums. Kaitlyn

Hi M, After reading this thread, I'm excited to see how your project progresses. If you finish your project and want to show it off, feel free to post in in the project vault. Kaitlyn
