ADDAC511 VC Stochastic Voltage Generator

Configuration

Presets with the Config panel

The Config panel reads, edits and writes the module's 16 presets and global settings over USB, in Chrome or Edge. It never touches the calibration.

  1. Connect the module's USB port (on the Daisy Seed, at the back) to the computer.
  2. Open the Config panel and press Connect to module, then Read from module.
  3. Edit presets, or Save .bin to keep a backup.
  4. Write to module sends the edited presets back.

A .bin backup can be opened later with Open .bin… and written to any ADDAC511.

Factory presets

To put the factory presets back on a module:

  1. Download ADDAC511_FACTORYpresets.bin.
  2. In the Config panel: Open .bin… and choose the file.
  3. Connect to module, then Write to module, and confirm. This replaces all presets on the module; calibration is kept.
