PicoScope® 4000A Series

Serial decoding

The PicoScope 4000A Series includes serial decoding capability across all channels as standard. PicoScope software can decode 1-Wire, ARINC 429, CAN, DALI, DCC, DMX512,

Ethernet 10Base-T, FlexRay, I²C, I²S, LIN, Manchester, Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU, PS/2, SENT, SPI, and UART protocol data as standard, with more protocols in development and

available in the future with free-of-charge software upgrades.

The decoded data can be displayed in the format of your choice: in graph, in table, or both at once.

• Graph format shows the decoded data beneath the waveform on a common time axis, with error frames marked in red. These frames can be zoomed to investigate noise or

distortion.

• Table format shows a list of the decoded frames, including the data and all flags and identifiers. You can set up filtering conditions to display only the frames you are interested

in, search for frames with specified properties, or define a start pattern to signal when the program should list the data.

PicoScope can also import a spreadsheet to decode the hexadecimal data into user-defined text strings.
