Retrieve/Set settings on PicoScope5444DMSO
Hi I got a few questions regarding the 5444DMSO scope in LabVIEW:
1. Do we have a dll call to pass in setup file that was saved from the software? Which is in PicoScope 7 Data File I believe
2. If not, how do we get the scaling info, y scale resolution etc.
3. And how do we pass the software setup file (PicoScope 7 Data File) to cmd prompt when LabVIEW runs system exec VI
Thanks in advance!

Hi, Answers below-
Q1. Unfortunately the psdata/pssetting binary file formats are proprietary to Pico Technology.
Q2. When you are using our LabVIEW SDK examples you open the unit by ADC resolution, and set the voltage ranges for the channels the same as PicoScope 7 software.
The raw data from the channel(s) is also scaled correctly in the examples.
See LabVIEW SDK examples-

Q3. PicoScope 7 does not support a CLI apart from a recently added convert file command.
PicoScope 6 does have a CLI, basic documentation on page 197 of the user guide- https://www.picotech.com/download/manua ... -guide.pdf
Here is an example another customer has created with System Exec.vi-
