Streaming mode

In this mode, data is passed directly to the host PC with buffering provided by the PicoScope internal buffer memory. This enables long periods of slow data collection for chart recorder and data-logging applications as well as fast USB streaming.

In PicoScope 6, the maximum number of samples that can be collected for each channel is 100 million. The Software Development Kit (SDK) allows unlimited data collection.

With faster scopes, both the speed of the USB connection and the amount of on-scope buffer memory may limit the fastest usable sampling rate.

Use streaming mode for:

• Data logging
• Collection of very large data sets using the Software Development Kit
• Processing of data as it is collected
• Real-time monitoring of a signal
