Re: functions to verify the trigger and channel settings

Hi I was recently trying to do exactly the same thing (but eventually decided to rely on pico_status) However- the ps4000 manual (page37) does mention a command called "ps4000IsTriggerOrPulseWidthQualifierEnabled" I tried this, but 'triggerEnabled' always returned as zero, regardless of whether or n...

Re: ps4000_GetTimebase problem

Ah- while my status variable was set okay (integer), some of my other data types were wrong- I was using longs where i should be using integers. Turns out you were right with your first reply!

Hi I am trying to run a 4424 over vb.net, but when I call ps4000_GetTimebase, the PICO_STATUS returns the error code 38 (or 26hex), apparently meaning "The memory index is out of range" What does this mean, and what can I do about it?
