FeelTech FY6600 60MHz 2-Ch VCO Function Arbitrary Waveform Signal Generator
soundtec:
So I tried the update on the 6600 ,no luck ,wanted to jump too version 3.4 but it wasnt happeneing ,
I did the update with the 6800 ,it worked ,its now at Version 1.7 , no visual difference from version 1.6 ,but there must be some difference somewhere .
the 6800 drops into update mode automatically, it seems to reboot a couple of times , its all done in a matter of a few minutes.
bitseeker:
Sounds like a nice improvement.
precaud:
Has anyone successfully downloaded an arb into the FY6x00 ?
I created .CSV files of my most-used arb waveforms, tried loading them into the FY6800, and the software does not like them, it terminates with "Run-time error 380: Invalid property value".
The files are simple ASCII real numbers scaled from 0 to 1, which is what most arb software I've used wants to see.
There is nothing in the download from the Feeltech website that gives any details about the file format for arb waveforms.
BTW, this is the same error message generated when I click on the question mark icon for Help in the arb edit mode. There is no help...
soundtec:
I believe you need to re-label the csv files into something else and its as simple as that ,there was a post by Dave R dealing with it somewhere way back if you can find it .Try renaming the files .fy
precaud:
Thanks soundtec. I think this is the post you were referring me to.
--- Quote from: DaveR on May 04, 2018, 04:14:56 pm ---Back on waveform files, the FY6600 will accept CSV files, but ONLY if the file contains nothing but the data values up to a maximum of 8192 points. Clearing out the other cells and info left by wafeform creation software only takes a few seconds in the case of those uploaded by soundtec, so it's just the same as copying the data values into a new text file. In fact, the software accepts *.txt files as well, so there's no need even ro rename them to *.fy.

The CSV file I created fits that description exactly, but the FY6800 software will not accept it. I've attached the file I was trying to load in, 4096 time domain data points with voltages scaled from 1.0 to -1.0 . Renaming it to .TXT (as it is attached) made no difference.
EDIT : I just saw that your data files had X,Y data pairs per point. So I recreated mine that way. It still bombs with the same error.
(rant: requiring a time value for each data point is stupid, all it should need is the time per point...once...)
