Says RIGOL: The integration of many of RIGOL's most popular UltraVision and UltraVision II oscilloscopes with GradientOne's web based platform allows engineers to simply and quickly set up tests, acquire/store the test data, analyze the results, and collaborate with teammates. RIGOL's price/performance offerings coupled with GradientOne's new approach to test automation provides engineers a powerful set of tools to easily set up and perform characterization without the need for steep learning curves associated with other types of test automation tools on the market.
"The thing I really like about GradientOne is that it makes capture and traceability of tests so much easier than front panel button pushing or vendor waveform save functionality," said Alex Whittemore, Electrical Engineering consultant at uBeam. "Button pushing can be so tedious, even if the experiment only calls for a handful of tests captured. I'd never put effort into writing Python or LabView test infrastructure just to save 10 different waveforms at 10 different input voltages, say, but manually exporting and tagging screenshots or .CSVs means I take shortcuts and by the end of the experiment, I'm not 100% certain test conditions match captured waveforms. GradientOne is an easy go-to and trivializes most of the setup and logging for a test like that. And if I need much more complexity, the same system supports adding it in only as necessary. And it helps that I've already got RIGOL gear on my bench, ready to go."
