Waveforms + Analog Discovery : How to configure the buffer size of the individual instruments

[ABwalker]

How do i configure the buffer size of the individual instruments beyond the ones that are default from the device manager (as shown below) ?

Suppose i want to configure 2x 16K for the scope, 0 k for the wavegen & logic and 16x1k for the Pattern gen , how do i do that ? Basically, i want to push more buffer size memory for the scope and still use the pattern generator.

Regards,

Hi @ABwalker,

I have moved your question to a more appropriate section of the Forum.

I do not think there is a way to completely customize the buffer allocations. Based on the screenshot I'm guessing you are using the Analog Discovery 2?

Thanks,

Hello JColvin,

Thank you for taking time to address my queries.

I have both Analog Discovery Legacy and Analog Discovery 2. And they have the same buffer configuration options when i plug into the PC.

Please advise me on how to configure the buffer allocations.

I have noticed that the buffer allocations are stored as files (as shown in the attached screenshot) in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Digilent\WaveForms3\Config

but i believe some compilation needs to be done .

Hi @ABwalker

Such configuration is not available.
You could use the Scope Record mode to capture more samples at lower rate < 1-2MHz

Hello Attila,

Thank you for addressing this query and making the suggestion to use record mode.
