ps6000SetDataBuffersBulk

PICO_STATUS ps6000SetDataBuffersBulk

(

short handle,

PS6000_CHANNEL channel,

short * bufferMax,

short * bufferMin,

unsigned long bufferLth,

unsigned long waveform,

PS6000_RATIO_MODE downSampleRatioMode

)

This function tells the driver where to find the buffers for aggregated data for each

waveform in rapid block mode. The number of waveforms captured is determined by

the nCaptures argument sent to ps6000SetNoOfCaptures. Call one of the GetValues

functions to retrieve the data after capture. If you do not need two buffers, because

you are not using aggregate mode, then you can optionally use

ps6000SetDataBufferBulk instead.

Applicability

Rapid block mode with aggregation

Arguments

handle, the handle of the device

channel, the input channel to use with the buffer

* bufferMax, a buffer to receive the maximum data values in

aggregation mode, or the non-aggregated values otherwise

* bufferMin, a buffer to receive the minimum data values in

aggregate mode. Not used in other downsampling modes.

bufferLth, the size of the buffer

waveform, an index to the waveform number between 0 and

nCaptures - 1

downSampleRatioMode: see ps6000GetValues

Returns

PICO_OK
