Using procedure
(1) In the combobox in the upper left corner, select the name of the device to be used. Then click the
[Set] button.
(2) Set the conversion conditions in the analog input setup dialog box.
When the input reaches the sampling count specified as the number of data sampling times, an event
occurs and the tool obtains data. Click the OK button to set the conditions and return to the
previous dialog box.
(3) Click the [Start Measurement] button to start measurement. Various states will be displayed
during conversion.
FIFO sampling count:
Conversion data loaded in memory. You can check this visually with the "memory image."
Event trigger sampling count:
An event occurs when the FIFO input sampling count reaches this value.
Total input sampling count:
Total number of times the application sampled data into memory.
The following errors may stop measurement.
Sampling clock error:
When the internal clock is used for conversion, this error indicates that the conversion speed is too
high for the driver to keep up with conversion.
When the external clock is used for conversion, the error indicates too fast a clock cycle or noise.
Buffer overflow:
This error indicates that the conversion speed is too high relative to the speed of data input, causing
memory overflow.
(4) Clicking the [End measurement] button terminates measurement.
