Re: ps500a Max Memory Segments

Hi Jacopo

The maximum memory segments for the 5000D devices are 250000 for 8 bit mode and 125000 for 12 bit+ mode when using the SDK. https://www.picotech.com/oscilloscope/5000/picoscope-5000-specifications

How are you currently trying to call the ps5000aGetMaxSegments function in MATLAB?

Re: using python wrappers with 2 PicoLog 1012 devices

Hi

When you connect to each device using the pl1000OpenUnit function, each device will be given a different number as the handle used for calling other functions.

Re: Picolog help

Hi

In PicoLog 6 have you set up the table before saving? What file format are you saving to from PiocLog 6?

Re: [Python][PS3206D MSO] measurements with digital channels

Hi Marc We don't currently have any examples showing triggering on a digital channel in python for the 3000a driver but there is a example using the 2000a driver, ps2000aMSOBlockExample.py, and the commands are nearly identical between the two drivers. To trigger with a digital channel, the advance ...

Re: Timestamps for python pl1000getValues

Hi

What timestamp are you trying to get? Are you wanting the system time at the point each measurement was made or something else?

Re: Select all in PicoLog 6

Hi

I believe that you can use ctrl+A to select all in the table view ready for copying so long as the data collection is paused. You can also export the data to a csv file for opening in software like excel.

Re: How re-use .pssetting files in python project?

Hi The pssetting and psdata file are proprietary file types and are not available to be loaded into any program other than PicoScope 6, to use the scope in python you would need to use the API functions from the PicoSDK to set up the scope that are documented within the programmer's guide here https...

Re: Why min and max buffers?

Hi When using SetDataBuffers you set up a maxBuffer and a minBuffer as when using aggregation downsampling you will get two different values per downsampled sample into these two buffers, if you are not using that downsampling mode then the two buffers will have the same data in them so you would on...

Re: How Measure frequency,duty,raise time of edge,fall time of edge

Hi

The measurements in PicoScope 6 are a software feature of PicoScope 6 and not included within the API in the PicoSDK. If you wish to make these measurements in C++ you would need to program these yourself.

Re: PicoVNA Matlab Interface

Hi

Using the regsvr32 will register the dll for use with 32 bit applications only as the dll itself is 32 bit so it would work with a 32 bit version of MATLAB such as 2015b 32 bit.

Re: Changing the Resolution of a 4444

Hi

The ps4000aSetDeviceResolution isn't in the .mdd file currently so to call it you would need to use this format instead;

calllib('ps4000a','ps4000aSetDeviceResolution',ps4000aDeviceObj.unitHandle, ps4000aEnuminfo.enPS4000ADeviceResolution.PS4000A_DR_14BIT)

Re: Picoscope 6404D Signal Generator Trigger Latency

Hi You would need to change the scope trigger to meet those requirements to have the signal generator trigger like that, as it is sharing it with the data capture as well. Are you able to give a sketch of your signal over several buffer lengths with where you would like to trigger your signal genera...
