I don't know if I can do that without a storage CRO. I tried altering my triggering but can't seem to hold the signal still long enough to actually see it. Don't know if I can sample using my soundcard. I might be able to record (dpending on whether the pport bus runs at less than 20Khz in speed. I then need to find an audio application that will display the waveform in scope mode. Am I missing something or is this my next step? On Thursday 20 February 2003 12:14, Mark D.
