Recording one measurement with PCS10

Dear Ladies and Gentleman.

Is it possible to record the Data of the 4 Voltages with the PCS10 at just one time?

I bought your Product PCS10 (4 Channel Signal recorder) which works with the Software PC-Lab 2000Se.
In my experiment I want to use the PCS to replace 4 analogue Multimeters.
That means I want the software to record the voltage of the 4 channels only one time, then change my experimental setup and after that measure the 4 voltages another time and so on.

I don’t want the software to record the 4 voltages 100 times per second but only once and to write these data in one file.

Is that possible?

I searched in your forum for 2 hours but couldn’t find a “post” concerning my problem. I would be very grateful if you could help me?

Yours sincerely
Martin Garbade

To get individual readings you have to use the DLL included to the package on this web site:
velleman.eu/distributor/supp … cs10&type=
Software
K8047/PCS10 DLL and example to write your own software

There are included documentation and example programs written in Visual Basic 6.0 and Delphi.

It is possible to use the DLL to read the data to Excel worksheet too using the VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) language.
If you prefer this alternative, I can prepare a simple Excel VBA macro for this purpose…

That would be very kind of you! Thank you very much!

Here you can download the Excel workbook with a macro:
box.net/shared/okyh7a3p1f

The files FASTTIME32.DLL, K8047D.DLL and K8047E.EXE from this package must be copied to the Windows’ SYSTEM32 folder.

Here are instructions how to use it:
Press first “Start” button
Set the gain values for channels (cells N3 - Q3).
Press “Setup” button.
Press “Read Data” to get values to table.
Finally press “Stop” button.

Press Alt + F11 to edit the VBA macro.
