OpenWave-1KB is an open-source project. It's a simple python program that can get image or raw data from digital storage oscilloscope (GDS-1000B/DCS-1000B/IDS-1000B/DSO-1000D series) via USB port or Ethernet.

Users can execute the same source code on Windows, Linux(Ubuntu) and Raspbian(on Raspberry Pi 2) operating system without changing a word. By using this version, users can also create multiple DSO connections at the same time.

This fork adds support for running the software on macOS and with Python3 and Qt5.

Equipment

You have to get a new digital storage oscilloscope - GDS-1000B, GDS-1000R(GOOD WILL INSTRUMENT)/DCS-1000B(TEXIO)/IDS-1000B(RS PRO)/DSO-1000D(CONRAD) and a PC or NB with MS Windows OS.

Environment

Currently OpenWave-1KB may be executed on Windows XP/7/8/10 32 or 64 bits OS. USB Driver can be found at www.gwinstek.com.

For windows, OpenWave-1KB.exe can be executed directly without installation. Please note that the path name and folder name cannot be double-byte characters.

The OpenWave-1KB source code can also be executed on Ubuntu 32 bits Linux OS or Raspbian OS(on Raspberry Pi 2,3,4). The USB driver is not required in this environment.

Command Line Execution

• Windows Example:

1. Connected via USB(please find the port number in the Device Manager)

   D:\OpenWave-1KB V1.01>OpenWave-1KB COM5
   

2. Connected via USB(automatically reading config file or scanning port)

   D:\OpenWave-1KB V1.01>OpenWave-1KB
   

3. Connected via Ethernet:

   D:\OpenWave-1KB V1.01>OpenWave-1KB 172.16.5.12:3000
   

• Linux(or Raspbian) Example:

1. Connected via USB(please find the device under /dev)

   user@Ubuntu:~/workspace_python/OpenWave-1KB V1.01$ sudo python OpenWave-1KB.py ttyACM1
   

2. Connected via USB(automatically reading config file or scanning port)

   user@Ubuntu:~/workspace_python/OpenWave-1KB V1.01$ sudo python OpenWave-1KB.py
   

3. Connected via Ethernet:

   user@Ubuntu:~/workspace_python/OpenWave-1KB V1.01$ sudo python OpenWave-1KB.py 172.16.5.12:3000
   

Tips:

1. If you want to connect your DSO via Ethernet. Don't forget to setup your IP address properly or set DHCP on(Utility -> I/O -> Ethernet -> DHCP/BOOTP on). And enable the socket server on your DSO(Utility -> I/O -> Socket Server -> Server on).

2. If you are using Linux, please add your username to group dialout to get proper privilege level for device accessing.

   user@Ubuntu:~/workspace_python/OpenWave-1KB V1.01$ $ sudo adduser xxxx dialout     #xxxx is your username
   sudo usermod -a -G dialout xxxx
   sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyACM0
   

3. You can also create a port.config file containing COM5 or ttyACM1 or 172.16.5.11:3000(as an example) in the folder for next time quick connection.

4. If you are using Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi2. Please use root account, that will help you to avoid privilege issues. You might get trouble if you find your DSO is connected as ttyACM0. Your will have to change some system configuration files manually.
