Seismograph 1.0.exe
Has anyone got this working on Windows (XP)? I can get the other JoyWarrior software to work (Tilt.exe and calibration.exe) but not Seismograph 1.0.exe
Not sure if I'm missing something.

Re: Seismograph 1.0.exe
This application is designed for Windows XP and later.
What is your Version of WinXp (Servicepack) ?
What is the error message or what ist the problem?

Re: Seismograph 1.0.exe
Fixed, I think. There was a blank drop down selector, with no title. Hidden in the drop down menu was the device number, which I missed first time around. The program works when I select the number.
However, the traces show only very small variations or are completely flat, for any G, Hz setting.
The device works well with QCNLive.

Re: Seismograph 1.0.exe
Wich device is still connected? JW24F14 or JW24F8 ?
The toolbar shows some function. One of these (left side of record button) can change the scale of x and y for more details.

24F14.
Thanks. I finally found the scaling control. The DC offset for Z is quite large, so I probably need to calibrate the sensor. However, will this cause problems when running QCNLive?

DC offset on Z? You should see 1 g on Z when the sensor is in an upright position.

I'll check when I get home, shortly.

Re: Seismograph 1.0.exe
OK, when I run calibrate.exe, the values (uncalibrated) are X:~115, Y: ~-90, Z: ~3990
When I run Tilt.exe, the values are: X: ~8300, Y: ~8100; Z: ~12190
When I run Seismograph 1.0.exe the Min/Max values are: X: 0-124, Y: -102-0, Z: 0-4009
When I run the display process at 2G and 10Hz, the X and Y traces are close to the black line, but the Z is quite a lot offset (my "DC offset" comment).

Re: Seismograph 1.0.exe
What you call DC offset is due to the large object close to the sensor, also known as "earth" ;)
There is always a static 1 g acceleration due to gravity and the sensor does measure this.

:-)
Makes sense. Is there a way to offset the traces in seismograph 1.0.exe to allow the signal to show clearly, rather than only show as faint wiggles on an otherwise flat line?
