PicoScope Progress Dialog

Post by t-max »

Is there a way to disable the progress dialog on the PS-3423 driver?
The software we've written opens the usb scope and collects 20+ samples and then closes the scope and we're getting the dialog opening and closing 20+ times...very annoying and slow. Its three times slower than the old scope we were using.
Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for your enquiry.

It sounds like you are opening and closing the unit for every sample taken. Try opening the unit and looping through the get_values function before closing the unit.

If you would further help, please post your code on this forum. Perhaps others can share their experiences too.

Best regards,
Michael

Michael,
no, we're only opening the unit once.
We open the scope.
Then we call ready, run_block, and get_times_and_values 20 times.
Then close the unit and we're getting the dialog 20+ times.

Thanks!
