PulseView - Qt-based LA/scope/MSO GUI for sigrok
pulseview [OPTIONS] [FILE]
PulseView is a cross-platform Qt-based GUI for the
sigrok software suite for test and measurement equipment such as
logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, MSOs, and more.
PulseView has very few command line options, as most
configuration elements are available from the GUI itself.
If the optional FILE argument is supplied, PulseView tries
to open the specified file. It has to be in the "libsigrok
session" format (.sr) unless -I is used to specify the input file
format.
- -l, --loglevel
- Set the libsigrok and libsigrokdecode loglevel. At the moment PulseView
doesn't support setting the two loglevels independently. The higher the
number, the more debug output will be printed. Valid loglevels are:
0 None
1 Error
2 Warnings
3 Informational
4 Debug
5 Spew
- -h, -?, --help
- Show a help text and exit.
- -V, --version
- Show version information and exit.
- -d, --driver
<drivername>
- Specify the capture device to connect to. If the --driver option is
not supplied, PulseView attempts to re-connect to the most recently used
device, or auto-detect available devices.
- -D, --dont-scan
- Usually PulseView automatically scans all drivers to find suitable devices
during program startup. This option disables the auto-scan. Users can
either specify the --driver option to pick a device at startup, or
interactively scan for devices after PulseView has finished starting
up.
- -i, --input-file
<filename>
- Load input from a file. If the --input-format option is not
supplied, PulseView attempts to load the file as a sigrok session
file.
- -I, --input-format
<format>
- Specifies the format of the input file to be loaded.
- -s, --settings
<filename>
- Load PulseView session setup to use with the input file. The setup file
must be in the "PulseView session setup" format (.pvs).
- -c, --clean
- Prevents the previously used sessions to be restored from settings
storage. This is useful if you want only a single session with the file
given on the command line instead of restoring all previously used
sessions as well.
- f
- Zoom-to-fit.
- s
- Enable / disable sticky scrolling. When enabled, the right edge of the
screen always shows the most recently captured data.
- .

- g
- Show / hide analog minor grid (in addition to the vdiv grid).
- c

trace backgrounds.
- SPACE

- 1/2
- Attach left/right side of the cursors to the mouse.
- CTRL+o
- Open file.
- CTRL+s
- Save as...
- CTRL+r
- Save selected range as...
- CTRL+g
- Group all currently selected traces into a trace group.
- CTRL+u

arrow keys

PulseView exits with 0 on success, 1 on most failures.
