Pace and Inclusiveness
ASA has a pace of introducing new and innovative product content that
is unmatched in the oscilloscope software market. About every 6-8
weeks, we release a new version of M1™ with significant new
functionality. Often, these new capabilities would
be considered separate, standalone programs by the scope companies (if
they had them). But with M1, it's all included in a single
product. And as long as you maintain an active Software Subscription,
you'll always have access to all of the new technology we develop.
Freedom
When you make the decision to bring scope-manufacturer-specific software into your lab, you are voluntarily adopting a number of limits on your own capabilities that you may not realize. M1 removes those limits and gives you real freedom...
...from the scope companies and their restrictive business model of
narrow, proprietary applications that only work on their own high-end
scopes. M1 follows an inclusive product strategy and works on every
real-time scope or digitizer regardless of the manufacturer.
...from having to wait 9-12 months for the scope company to create a
compliance test for a new standard. With M1 and ScriptBuilder,
you can build it yourself in an afternoon – or download it for free
once someone else has created it.
...from your scope or digitizer. With M1, there is no longer a reason to be tied to your device. Let M1 OT acquire and save as much data as you need, and then analyze it using M1 Reader back in your office, or at your local coffee shop, or on your couch at home, or wherever you need to be.
...from correlation issues caused by being forced to switch to a different
measurement software package just because you bought a scope from a
different manufacturer.
... from having to create your own complex measurements with your EDA-generated waveforms. M1 removes the complexity by integrating these simulated waveforms into a standard analysis process.
... from writing automation analysis to support automated production testing using your digitizers. M1 provides the freedom to program the interface in multiple software development tools such as LabVIEW, Perl, Python, and C#.
"If you make a technical product, and you want to win... buy only the best tools.
To do otherwise is self-defeating. ScopeCo makes great scopes. But their software
is unimaginative, proprietary, severely limited, expensive, and deployed under a harsh pricing model.
Our strategy at ASA is simple... do the opposite of ScopeCo. What’s the opposite
of unimaginative, proprietary, severely limited, expensive and
deployed under a harsh pricing model?
Try out M1OT if you want to experience the answer."
