Yes, flush this firmware cleaning, then your own.


Re: Color tweak

 

Successfully installed your white.dfu. Still blue.

Hardware issue ? Some kind of flash memory that needs to be cleared ?

22 : AnyVNA From The Common User's Point Of View :

A Practical Application of the Core Uncertainty Strips

Hello,

Allow us, please, to point out that, first of all, the Practical
Uses of the Core Uncertainty Strip(s) CUS(s) resulting from
AnyVNA system are limited only by the imagination of it's
Common User in Design, Prediction, Explanation,
Justification, Evaluation, or whatever else are his needs...

Anyway, since our Sole Objective here is the Evaluation
of NanoVNA, we begun yesterday our final trials
by using that one-port 50-OHM DC ref2007box,
for which we got its Core Uncertainty Strip(s) CUS(s)
using our VNA system:

[20] : Measurements with Core Uncertainty:
/g/nanovna-users/message/3273

So, our aim was to put the Initial (R,X) calibrated
results of NanoVNA onto (R,X) CUS diagrams.
For that purpose, we built [ods] files by using the
Calc application of foss LibreOffice 4.1.0.4 and
we extracted the following resulting images:

A : Initial NanoVNA results vs ref2007box CUSs :

1 : R ~ f :
2 : X ~ f :

From these figures we concluded at once that
since the most of NanoVNA results were definitely
lie outside the CASs, this is due - perhaps -
to the unavoidably inserted N-to-SMA converter.

After that, and in order to somehow substantially support
this - guessed - conclusion, we "manipulated" the
NanoVNA results by mathematically transforming them
in such a way to put them inside the CUSs, as follows:

B : Initial (pink) and Transformed (red) NanoVNA results vs ref2007box CUSs :

3 : R ~ f :
4 : X ~ f :

Finally, in order to complete the "dirty manipulation of
data" we just "eliminated" the initial NanoVNA results
from the diagrams:

C : (red) (Transformed) NanoVNA results vs ref2007box CASs:

5: R ~ f :
6: X ~ f :

In this way, we could - prematurely - concluded that the
NanoVNA is as much reliable as our VNA.

But, obviously, more work has to be done in the direction of
finding at last the NanoVNA CUSs.

Sincerely,

gin&pez@arg

Re: Color tweak

DMR
 

Try this one, instead of blue, white.
DFU Firmware.


Re: Color tweak

 

Well, it doesn't work for me....

Tried:

1) Intentionally putting a syntax error into main.c to see that I was building the correct main.c.
2) Shorted the pins to put into DFU mode.
3) Changed all of the trace colors to (255,255,255).
4) Made a change in plot.c, to confirm that the correct firmware was being flashed.

The result is the original, default colors.

Re: Color tweak

I just tried it myself. Everything is working. Did you remember to click save before compiling?


Re: Color tweak

 

Sorry, DMR...it doesn't work. Still blue.

I do a make - main.c recompiles, builds,etc.

do sudo make flash and the flash appears to install just fine.I'm using the config->dfu->reset and enter dfu, not shorting the pins.

Re: nanoVNA without the USB-C power on, turns off after approx. 30 sec. ?

Re: Color tweak

Change colors in this line. main.c

Standard
/* trace_colors[4] */ { RGB565(0,255,255), RGB565(255,0,0), RGB565(0,0,255), RGB565(50,255,0) },
Blue -> White
/* trace_colors[4] */ { RGB565(0,255,255), RGB565(255,255,255), RGB565(0,0,255), RGB565(50,255,0) },


Color tweak

 

I have been successfully making some small tweaks to the 0.1.1 firmware. I would like to change the colors of the traces to make them more readable in sunlight. However, that tweak has not been successful. In main.c, I tried changing the trace_color array in config_t config. However, it does not seem to have any effect. What am I missing ?

Thanks,

I'll try that tomorrow with the 1 GHz filter. Here are the cal loads for the Agilent - can't lose just one of them - it's all or nothing!

I agree Warren. I can't wait until the Belton TX hamfest next month so I can get rid of my HP8568B spectrum analyzer, HP8444A tracking generator, and various RF bridges that I was only using sporadically. My workbench will feel like its got a new lease on life.

Edited

Benny,
Some of the lower cost nanoVNA's are delivered without a battery. Check and see if you have one. You may be charging a capacitor when you plug it in, but after disconnecting from USB power the capacitor discharges to the point it can no longer power the nanoVNA.

John,

The Nanovna has become my go-to bench instrument and the spectrum analyzer/tracking generator/rf bridge rarely even gets powered on these days. Simply an amazing device!

nanoVNA without the USB-C power on, turns off after approx. 30 sec. ?

 

I have a nanoVNA with USB-C after charging, I turn it on without the USB-C power on, it turns on fine, but turns off again after approx. 30 sec. - but run with USB power plugged in, does anyone have a good idea, preferably a solution? ;-)
