ps3000aGetTimebaseStateles() Documentation

Post by spflanze »

I see that ps3000a.dll has several variations of the function ps3000aGetTimebaseStateless(). I have a need to use this function, but I do not see any version of it documented here:
https://www.picotech.com/download/manua ... -guide.pdf

For the PicoScope 3000 series in ps3000a.dll where is this function described?

The functions are ps3000aGetTimebase and ps3000aGetTimebase2 as detailed in the Programmer's Guide, however you don't need to call these functions to operate the scope, they provide information only.

ps3000aGetTimebase-2, and ps3000aGetTimebase2-2, is not in that manual. What is the meaning of the -2 suffix? Many, but not all, functions in the dll have this suffix. I have no idea what is different about them, and whether or not to use them. I do not see this -2 suffix documented anywhere.

I believe the -2 is being added by LabVIEW. Are you using the 32bit or 64bit dll's ?
