Could you do something about the response time when stopping
one capture - clearing the display - and restarting a new capture?
It usually takes 4 - 5 seconds for the new capture to start
and sometimes it just doesn't start and the button needs to be re-clicked. It is quite irritating.
I'm using the latest Picoscope download on an Intel Duo machine running at 2.5Ghz with 4Gb ram - I think that should be fast enough?
Also the on screen button could be a bit bigger and maybe better placed?
I use a 4224.
Just a simple square wave - maybe 30 cycles of about 600uS
pulse width variable by about 20%. About 3 sets captured. Nothing too large I don't think unless I'm doing something wrong or just badly.
Can you think of anything I may not be doing that could cause this? I notice no one else has mentioned this so it could well be me.
I usually set for falling trigger +/- 5V and various timescales
with repeat capture on.
Based on the fact that you are only getting three captures in the buffer, I would guess that your sample rate is very high. Check the properties tab to see. You can probably turn that down quite a bit. This would result in much faster updates and many more captures in the buffer.
