FAQ

There are 2 output file formats supported for recordings, “Volts” and “Raw”. ”Volts” returns the file stored in 32-bit floating point format, with the correction filter applied and scaled to volts across 50Ω at the input to the Etherstore. “Raw” returns the raw 12-bit signed ADC samples.
No, the morephE can operate in autonomous mode. The RF environment application plus the control script can run from a USB drive. When the unit powers up, the application will launch and read in the control script. The script may direct the application to either play back an existing file or start a new recording.
Files can be downloaded from the host to the Etherstore. These may either be files previously recorded by the Etherstore, or scenarios which a user has generated.
This is simple, it will need to be returned to us for a hardware update and then you download the Etherstore RF environment application.
