Development kit for DATAMAN 570 series
Programmer’s Guide
nsPerDiv – amount of nanoseconds per screen division (50 samples); this
value is passed to the SetTimeBase function
RealSamplingRate – real sampling rate (in case, that the timebase doesn’t run
in sampling mode, this value equals to SamplingRate)
SamplingRate – equivalent sampling rate; this frequency determines distance
between two samples
SamplingMulti – indicates ratio of SamplingRate and RealSamplingRate; the
value of 1 indicates sampling in real time, value greater than 1 indicates sampling
mode
3.1.7. GetRangeList
Returns the list of available ranges.
Public Shared Sub GetRangeList(ByRef items As TRangeItem, ByRef
itemcount As Integer)
Parameters:
rangelist – the first item of the array which will be filled with the available
ranges. Array must be at least 13 items long.
rangelistlength – the number of array items which was filled (number of
available ranges)
Return value: -
Remark:
Each array item is of TRangeItem type. This structure comprise of following items:
mVPerDiv – amount of mV per one screen division (32 quantization levels);
this value is passed to the SetRange function
3.2. Initialization functions

Loads m570drv.dll driver.
Public Shared Function LoadDriver() As Integer
Parameters: -
Return value:
