Hantek 6022BE 20MHz USB DSO

[daybyter]

Do you have a stable trigger with OpenHantek under linux? That is my main problem yet. But I have to admit, that my version might be a bit dated.

Dear Friends,
I got Hantek 6022BE.
Recently, on this forum I learned that there is alternative software. At least 2 worth to consider: Open6022 V. PR18 or PR19 and second OpenHantek from openhantek.org.
Did anyone compared this softwares and can tell me which one is performing better? I am using oscilloscope in audio constructions applications so for me the most important is range 0Hz to 1,4112 MHz (I2S protocol freq for 44,1 sampling rate).
PS - don't tell me H6022BE is a toy - I know this very well, but I paid 41 eur inc shipment, brand new   Less than lunch for family in fair restaurant:)

If there is a decent use for something, it's not a toy.
It's maybe not a Festool, but hey. Sometimes a b-brand is more than good enough for the job!

Goog morning
I bought an Hantek 6022BE and I've played with its SDK.
I developed a little oscilloscope using VB.NET. If anyone is interested this is the dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qieod71ucovd6we/AADJvoBmMZNcR0kFB8ysS7vSa?dl=0
Any suggestion is welcome

Yes!  Very interested in yours.  Just downloaded your installer.

For some reason, this worked just right from the first time and although not an "oscilloscope" it measures much better than stock software and others i tried with my brand new hantek

It just seems to measure some 0.03-0.05V over my DMM which is not much you might say but it is when i want to measure output ripples etc and i get say 0.188 instead of 0.158V (or more)
Photo is with probes shorted.

hi guys, very intresting and usefull forum, compliments

i need to measure the outer foil of caps, and i have bought hantek 60022BE oscilloscope, but i can't able to measure any difference reversing the cap, otherwise my friend that use non cheap oscilloscope doesn't have these problems.

could you help me ?

[electrosci]

where can i find last version of modded software and also firmware upgrade ?

thank you

[electrosci]

i tried to run OpenHantek_jt-X64-Release-b19 on my pc but none, donìt run
could someone help me ?

[Hajo von Falkenstein]

@electrosci,

unfortunately, it seems so as that a firmware update don't exist. You can try this open software which i find pretty nice.

Hi freebil,
Yes, the standard installed OEM software Hantek6022BE provides FFT as an option under the Math feature.
The FFT choices are as follows:
Source: CH1, CH2
Window: Rectangle, Hanning, Hamming, Blackman
VERT Scale: 1.00mV, 2.00mV, 5.00mV, 10.0mV, 20.0mV, 50.0mV, 100mV, 200mV, 500mV, 1V, 2V, 5V
HORI Scale: x1, x2, x5, x10

Some excellent work has been done by contributors earlier in this thread, culminating in the development of Pre-Release "Open6022BE" improved versions of the software, by Richard Krupski (RichardK), and its User Manual by Andre le Roux (Matchless ?) (both Regular Cotributors) and others.
Many thanks to that team for their contributions.

This alternative software supports an enhanced FFT function, accessed from its own button on the Toolbar, instead of the Math button.
The FFT Settings include:
Source: Channel One, Channel Two, Math, Reference
Volt/DIV: 1.00mV, 2.00mV, 5.00mV, 10.0mV, 20.0mV, 50.0mV, 100mV, 200mV, 500mV, 1.00V, 2.00V, 5.00V
Render: Native, Lines, Polyline, Polygon
Window: Rectangular, Hamming, Hann, Cosine, Lanczos, Bartlett, Triangular, Gauss, Bartlettt Hann, Blackman, Nuttall, Blackman Harris, Blackman Nuttall, Flattop
Freq Bins: Auto, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384
Postion: (Slider control for vertical position of trace)
Color: (Controls trace color from Color Picker Dialogue)
Scale in dB: (Check Box)
The Fundamental Frequency Detection controls are shown in their own Group Box, which includes:
Show Fundamentals: (Check Box)
Begin Peak Threshold: (Adjustable in stpes of 0.01)
End Peak Threshold: (Adjustable in steps of 0.01)

The Pre Release version 18 software can be downloaded from:
http://jmp.sh/k0tTgXg
The executable file Open6022BE_PR18.exe and associataed files should be saved in their own folder.

The latest User Manual for "Open6022BE", v1.0b19 2014/12/21, can be downloaded as a PDF file (57 pages), from:
http://jmp.sh/3RFfHFz

The Source Code (C/C++) for "Open6022BE", v1.0 beta PR19, has been released and can be downloaded from:
http://jmp/sh/sJKpC23
This includes executable file Open6022BE_PR19.exe

The Source Files can be built/compiled using Embarcadero/CodeGear C++Builder (part of RAD Studio, which also includes Delphi).
It will be necessary to install ToolBar2000 version 2.2.2, by Jordan Russell, available at:
http://www.jrsoftware.org/tb2k.php

This should be manually patched for use with later versions of RAD Studio.
See "15. How to install TB2K on Delphi 2009 and up" at:
http://www.silverpointdevelopment.com/sptbxlib/support.htm

Minor changes to the Open 6022BE Source Files may be required, e.g. to accommodate changes in location of units within later versions of RAD studio, etc.

I hope this helps

[electrosci]

thank you very much...i've already downloaded that release very cool

[ViktorEEV]

OpenHantek for Windows can be now found at: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/OpenHantek/openhantek/build/artifacts

A winusb driver for the 6022BL/6022BE is attached.

[electrosci]

wow! thank you very much

[electrosci]

excuseme but again i'm not able to start the software.
i click on the exe but shoe me a black cmd windows and after 2 - 3 seconds disappears
is there step by step procedure ?

[ViktorEEV]

Hello everyone, been a while since I have poked in here... I have some free time coming up and I want to hammer away some more Bugs, GUI and Measure in particular...
[...]
I fixed that today and when I get some more bugs fixed I'll compile a new build for everyone with updated source.

Hello, do you have an update about the current status of your program?
The current version PR19 is very promising and i would like to see a continuation of this project (if possible).

@electrosci
Did you install the attached driver?

[electrosci]

yes i installed the driver.
if would be possible i need a step by step procedure for installing and run openhantek software

I managed to read all the pages of the thread, it was like a history of how the current software options came to be  , very informative and thanks to all the people who decoded the quirckness of this device

my current limitation is the 5V limit which translates to 50V with a 1:10 probe. Anything above that is reported as 5V/50V . The way I got it, is that's a firmware/software limit not a hardware one.

I tries both the original Software and OpenHantek and both seem to follow the clipping at 50V. I will try the other alternative software now , but I wanted to ask if there is a workaround that I haven't managed to decode through all these pages

cheers and thanks again

hello i use Windows 7 OS and there is a problem. When I use the original software (Hantek6022BE) for my PC oscilloscope Hantek 6022BE, RMS is shown correctly but when I use one of the beta versions (Open6022BE v1.0 BetaPR19 ,Open6022BE v1.0 BetaPR18, Open6022BE v1.0 BetaPR17) RMS shows incorrectly. For example if in the original software RMS shows 53mV at amplitude= 163mV, 12.5% Duty cycle, it at use beta version RMS show  1.00674V at amplitude= 163mV, 12.5% Duty cycle, furthermore in the beta version when the input of the oscilloscope is toward ground RMS shows 999mV and this not change even when calibrating

p.s. I would like to point out that this applies only to RMS value only in the beta versions, everything else is correct

No, that (or at least something) would be a hardware limit.

This box is not really a traditional scope - it's a data streaming device with a very limited front end and no real hardware trigger.

Ok so I got something wrong after all these pages I read. Anyhow the limit is still there   
So the only solution would be a 20:1 attenuator they sell for 5 euros . This way you could theoretically measure upto 100volts, which isn't so bad after all.

The maximum voltage input of this scope is 5V, it is a hardware limit, not software so it can't be changed. It has input protection (diodes) that will clamp any signal greater than 35Vpk.
So yes, if you need to probe signals with bigger amplitudes you can either use an attenuator or a probe like the P4100 with x100 attenuation https://www.aliexpress.com/item/INSTRUSTAR-20MHz-ISDS205B-PC-Based-USB-Digital-Oscilloscope-match-p4100-Oscilloscope-Probe-100-1-Withstand-2KV/32704502182.html

Ok just for me to understand better. You write that the protection diodes will clamp any signal greater than 35Vpk. Which is bigger than 5Volts. So with a 1:10 attenuation you get 350Vpk. I understand that Im somewhere wrong in my logic but can you please guide me through it ?

thanks

[Microcheap]

Yeah, after I posted I knew this question was coming, my answer was a bit confusing, sorry.

What I mean is, the input of the scope was design to work continuously with a maximum signal of +/-5V (see manual), the clamping diodes are intended for protection only. For example, if the amplitude of the signal you are analyzing varies or you connect a wrong voltage, temporally, the diodes will clamp it protecting the oscilloscope. If you try to operate the scope continuously with a voltage in the inputs greater than what is specified you will probably damage your equipment.
So, the best way to go is just grab one of those x100 probes and you will be fine.

[Seekonk]

f you ever see a nice flat trace with no noise, you are probably clipping. Sure wish the trace would turn a specific color indicating that rather than thinking that is a really great square wave.  A X100 probe is essential.  I damaged one of the inputs. Some day I will open it up.  Oddly, it failed working with much higher gain.  Pretty easy for those flimsy switches to slide to the X1 position.

Microcheap > thanks for the detailed explanation

I ordered one of these 20x attenuators that hanatek gives, and by connecting it to the 1x probe I will be able to get into this 78Volt signal that I want to look.

If I switch to the 10x probe together with the 20x attenuator, will I get 200x or I will just mess up the resistance calculation done in these parts ?

I'm also waiting for a USB isolation port and a 5V 2W DC-DC converter to also protect my old laptop.

playing with scopes (and understanding what they read out) will be my 2019 aim

Hello Richard,

late to the party, I just got my Voltcraft DSO-2020USB and really working on getting it working. Could you tell me more about the differences between models.

tried making a new dso model class in openhantek, but I fail even with VID and PID modifications, there is more. Maybe you could help me out with reversing the original dlls.

thanks a lot RickardK

[MarkFalk]

Hello,
I need a little help:
I have bought a used 6022BL for use with RichardK´s Open6022BE.
I downloaded the software from Hantek´s homepage and the Open6022BE.
Due to the Open6022BE-manual (p.12) at first I installed the Hantek-software incl. the original Hantek-driver (OS is Win7 SP1). And here is the problem:
It is explained (Open6022BE-manual p.12f and 6022BL-manual p.6f) that two drivers should be installed - Hantek Driver 1 and Hantek Driver 2. But doesn´t matter what I do - only Hantek driver 2 is installed and also only one time the "found new hardware"-message appears. And so also in the device manager only Hantek driver 2 appears in the "Hantek6022BL"-section, also when enabled "show hidden devices" and also after reboot. No driver 1. What is the reason, any hint how to solve?

Nevertheless the original Hantek-Software ist working, also BasicScope 1.2, but Open6022BE refuses to run with the message that the device is not found, drivers are not installed.
After some research I found the hint that I have to copy the BL-version of HTMarch.dll from the Hantek-software-directory. I did so, now Open6022BE startet, but when increasing the timebase above 20ms the software or the DSO "hangs" - the waveform is displayed and stucks in the left side, no more data acquiring, I have to decrease timebase to 20ms and close the software. Any idea?

Regards, Mark
