Voltpeek is a command based PC oscilloscope software. Voltpeek works with the NewtScope headless oscilloscope hardware which is still in development.
By command based, we mean that everything in Voltpeek is controlled and adjusted via command instead of
click and drag or text entry like many other oscilloscope softwares that run on PC. For example, the
scale command will put the oscilloscope/software in adjustment mode. The horizontal and vertical
scales can then be adjusted using the h
, j
, k
, and l
keys. ctrl-c
or esc
will put the software back into
command mode. As may be obvious, this is inspired by the Vim text editor.
