PicoScope 7 Software
Available on Windows, Mac and Linux
To always have streaming enabled I have set autostop to 0. How can I get rid of the ValueError, and how to make the program run faster?File "C:\Filename\deleteme2.py", line 139, in streaming_callback
bufferCompleteA[nextSample:destEnd] = bufferAMax[startIndex:sourceEnd]
ValueError: could not broadcast input array from shape (197,) into shape (0,)

# PS4000 Series (A API) STREAMING MODE EXAMPLE
# This example demonstrates how to call the ps4000 driver API functions in order to open a device, setup 2 channels and collects streamed data (1 buffer).
# This data is then plotted as mV against time in ns.
