Hi Shuo

It is a time-out after which the unit will trigger regardless of the signal. If you set it to zero, auto triggering will be disabled.

Hi

Those functions are in the MS C runtime library (included with Visual Studio and many other IDEs) and are defined in the header conio.h. It sounds like your IDE doesn't include these library functions.

You could change the code so that it doesn't use these functions.

Hi Ben

I'm not sure why you are getting that error status. The driver checks that the segment index is in the range 0 to nSegments-1, which it obviously is. As you say, it works in the example.

Can you post your function call and any relevant definitions here?

Robin

Hi I don't recognise that VI. Is it an old example of ours? The case structure isn't using the return value of usb_tc08_close_unit, it's using the handle to the device. It should be connected to the return value (the top terminal on the right of the call library function node). It should also be cha...

Hi Alex

Here is the latest driver for the ps6000. It has the new function to poll the driver so it is not necessary to use callbacks in block mode.

PICO_STATUS ps6000IsReady (short handle, short * ready);

Hi

I should have said, can you save it for Labview 8.2?

Thanks

Robin

Hi

usb_tc08_close_unit returns a 1 if successful or a zero otherwise.

Can you post the VI here?

Thanks

Robin

Hi Shuo I just double-checked the VI posted above and it works fine for me. Check your trigger settings, particularly autotrigger time. We have added a new function to the driver that allows you to easily set up a simple trigger and it might be of interest to you. I have attached the latest version ...

Hi

The function usb_tc08_legacy_get_temp will only return a single temperature value.

LONG_MAX is the maximum value of the 'long' data type in C, which is 2147483647 on a 32-bit operating system.

Hi Miguel

There is a block mode example in the SDK (ps2000_block.llb) and it is not necessary to use the wrapper for block mode (only fast streaming).

The source code for the wrapper is also included in the SDK (ps2000wrap.c).

Regards

Robin

Hi Olaf With the attached driver, it is no longer necessary to use a wrapper for block-mode operation. Instead, call ps4000RunBlock and pass NULL instead of a function pointer. You can then poll the driver using: PICO_STATUS ps5000IsReady (short handle, short * ready); Regarding the PICO_INVALID_HAN...

Hi Julien In streaming mode, you get a continuous stream of data. However, the sampling rate is limited by the USB trasfer rate. Block mode allows much higher sampling rates, but there will be gaps in the data. If you are waiting for a particular event to occur, then you can set the oscilloscope to ...

Hi In the call to usb_tc08_legacy_get_temp, 'temp' is a pointer, so the caller needs to pass the address of the memory location where the value of temp should be written. I believe this is done in VEE by creating both an input and output terminal for this parameter. See the image below, where both "...

Hi Mathias

Here is the latest .lib. However, this shouldn't have any effect as the entry points haven't changed.

To check the location of the DLL that your application is using, you can use Process Explorer:
