WaveDump2

Overview

WaveDump2 is an Open Source C++ software developed upon Qt cross-platform application development framework. An advanced and user-friendly configuration GUI provides all the necessary tools and functionalities for managing any hardware parameter from the basic ones to the most specific ones. The settings can be conveniently stored into or loaded from a configuration file.
This software strictly works with any CAEN Digitizer 2.0 when running the Scope firmware for waveform recording applications. Data acquisition from multiple boards and multi-board synchronized systems are managed through a dedicated toolbar.

Basing on Dig1 Library, support has also been extended to Digitizer 1.0 starting from the 725, 730, 740, and 751 series.

WaveDump2 also provides a plot section emulating a 8-channel digital oscilloscope. This tool allows to review the acquired waveforms, fine-tune the device settings and/or troubleshoot potential problems. The collected waveform data can be saved to ASCII or binary files for offline analysis.
Cursors are available in the oscilloscope to make on-screen measurements, as well as marker lines to indicate the trigger position and the trigger threshold level. Traces can be individually enabled/disabled and a legend is available to simply identify the displayed signals. The graphical tool offers a zooming control on both vertical and horizontal direction. Basic processing like FFT and samples histogramming is provided runtime.
