Time stamps or a time scale on the 2D/3D plots

kullboys,

In the latest version of Spike, the waterfall plot has cursors and a timescale. In the process though, we removed the 3D plot so we can focus more on the 2D plot features. Additionally we added a configurable sweep depth and scroll bar. You can have a sweep history up to 50k sweeps.

You can find the latest version of Spike here

In regards to your USB problems, what spectrum analyzer are you using? What kind of PC are you running it on? Do you have a make/model number for your PC and CPU?

Regards,
Andrew

Jon,

The 3D waterfall plot was removed in version 3.1.8, so I suspect 3.1.7 is the last version with it. I will link it below.

The plot is gone for now, we don’t have any plans to introduce it again.

I don’t think you can install two different versions at the same time. But to get around this, I would install 3.1.7 and then simply copy the whole Spike directory at C:/Program Files/Signal Hound/Spike/ to somewhere else. That Spike directory is fully standalone and is not dependent on any other files on the system. Then simply install the latest version of Spike. You can run the latest version of Spike from the normal location and when you need the 3D plot, run it from the directory you saved.

Let me know if you have questions.
