PicoScope Automotive version history

7.2.19.9097 Apr 30, 2026

New features

  • Capture Playback functionality has been added to the Waveform Navigator. This feature allows captured waveforms to be replayed, enabling review in both the forwards and backwards directions, with adjustable playback speed.
  • Added NMEA2000 serial protocol decoder.
  • Time at Ch Levels measurement added.
  • Added Atan2 maths function.
  • The Auto trigger timeout has been reduced so the scope is more responsive when waiting for trigger events.
  • File loading now shows a better indication of progress.
  • Transparency added to zoom and ruler windows.

Bug fixes

  • Issue where SINAD measurement was giving incorrect results has been resolved.
  • Measurement values now update if the user changes hysteresis or threshold settings or moves the signal rulers, even if capture is stopped.
  • Fixed issue where an unncessary extra scope view was sometimes created when adding a measurement.
  • Fixed issue where the measurements standard deviation reading would sometimes not equal 0 when measured over 1 waveform.
  • A software hang that occurred during the export of large captures containing math channels to CSV format has been resolved.
  • For applicable devices, when coupling mode is set to IEPE, this setting is now correctly saved and loaded.
  • Resolved trigger jitter on some triggers within the PicoScope 4000a device driver.
  • Resolved a level below trigger issue on 8-channel devices using the PicoScope 4000a device driver. …
7.2.10.7895 Dec 11, 2025

New features

  • NOTE: From this version, PS7 will no longer install on MS Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and the earliest release versions of 10.
  • A new Channel Deskew control has been integrated into the Channel Display tabs.
  • A new Waveform Overlay tool allows multiple scope or spectrum traces to be overlaid using controls in the Waveform Navigator, enabling range selection to identify anomalies or visualize changes over time.
  • The amplitude strategy (Top/Base or Peak-to-Peak) can now be selected for Rise/Fall Time and Rise/Fall Rate measurements and math channels.
  • Measurements can now be selected or deselected to show or hide their graph indicators, with only one measurements indicators displayed at a time. This is currently supported for Pk-Pk, Min, Max, Edge Count, Cycle Time, Frequency, Pulse Width, Rise/Fall Time, Rise/Fall Rate, RMS, RMS ripple, Top/Base, Amplitude, Mean, Phase, Delay, Duty Cycle, Overshoot and Crest Factor measurements. The feature can be enabled or disabled in Add Measurement > Settings.
  • Serial decoder filters now display the filtered data on the graph.
  • Serial decoding filter settings are now saved within .psdata and .pssettings files.
  • Added an isoSPI decoder to Serial Decoding.
  • Actions can now be configured to trigger when a measurement passes or fails its limit, either for specific measurements or across all added measurements.
  • Ruler values are now included in printouts, when printing to PDF and when copying as image. …
