Python SDK Streaming mode: cannot set sample rate with other than microseconds ("PS5000A_US")

Post by erikt »

Hello together,

I am using a Pioscope 5444D MSO to acquire laser spectroscopy data. I need a higher time resolution but the API is only accepting microseconds properly.

My program is based on https://github.com/picotech/picosdk-pyt ... Example.py
In line 123 the wished interval is set, in 144 the result printed. I can set any value in us and get the correponding value in nanoseconds. If I try to set 100 ns, I get back 104000ns...

I could reproduce the error by using the example file and only changing line 123.

Thanks already :)
