Can the ADC-11 also function as a scope?

The ADC-11 can function as a four channel oscilloscope in which any of the 11 channels may be selected.

The maximum sampling rate possible with the USB ADC-11 is 20 ksps (15 Ksps parallel ADC-11), however, that is divided by the number of active channels.

In single channel Scope mode, you could typically expect to measure up to around 7KHz, (sine wave assumed) though the displayed waveform would be poor, or, around 1.5KHz with reasonable sine shape.
