Pokit Pro Multi Channel Oscilloscope and datalogging

So far I only have one Pokit Pro so have not been able to test this.  I need to know if the oscilloscope and/or datalogger modes will simultaneously capture 2, or more, signals.

How about the multimeter mode?  Will it be able to simultaneously collect values from all probes?

  Hello Shane,

  The way multichannel works for Pokit Pro is different for each mode:

  Multimeter:

  The separate channels will measure at the same time but aren't actively being "synchronized" in any way so the measurements you get may be desynced by a fraction of a second.

  Oscilloscope:

  The separate channels are actively synchronized, for forced acquisition and free run triggers they are synced to the start of the capture and for triggered modes they are synced to the "Master" (the Pokit Pro the trigger is set on, can be on any channel) trigger when it triggers.

  Logger:

  There is currently no sync in logger but you can run multiple logs at one time on separate channels so in theory if you start them at the same time they should reman roughly in sync.

  Please work on adding a syncing data option when logging, roughly in sync is not good enough for my purposes. If you could get the data loggers to talk to one another when acquiring a data point, multiple parameter can be known for that data point. (this shouldn't be too difficult since you already do it for the scope mode).  if you could add this as a feature in the future i could ditch the data logging bricks and troubling cabling runs that I currently have to setup
