For all users who have been asking for an A-100 oscilloscope maybe we found
a solution. The Belgium manufacturer Velleman has available an LCD
oscilloscope module VPS10 that will fit into the A-100 frame (even suitcase
version). Details can be found here:
http://www.vellemanusa.com/us/enu/product/view/ id=522077
We consider to offer an A-100 front panel and power supply adapter (the VPS
requires 9V/300mA) so that the scope can be mounted to an A-100 frames and
powered by the A-100 power supply. Unfortunately the VPS10 requires 300mA
and this current would be taken away from the A-100 PSU. Another solution
would be to supply the VPS10 by a standard 9V wall outlet power supply.
We will probably not offer the complete scope module as we do not get a
better price for the VPS10 than the end user (about Euro 180, i.e. about
US$220) but only the front panel/power supply kit. The VPS10 has to be
ordered by the customer. The installation is simple (4 mounting screws + 2
solder point for the power supply).
Let me know what you think.
Bakis, maybe you can start a poll like this:
are you interested in the A-100/VPS10 scope module in general
would you prefer the front panel/power supply adapter (the VPS10 has to be
purchased and added/mounted by the user)
would you prefer the complete module (much more expensive than the adapter +
VPS 10 as Doepfer will have to charge for handling/dealer rebate/warranty of
VPS10)
Best wishes
