Thank you very much for the very helpful reply! This is what I mean with averaging. I am recording a signal reflecting spiking behavior. I need high sampling rates to make sure I capture the spikes, for e.g. 1kHz. Because this implies very large files over long recording periods, I would be interested in two options: 1) An automated manner of saving files of a fixed size throughout my acquisition. So: record at 1kHz for 10 hours, but save consecutive files every some Megabytes. 2) As a compromise, it could be OK to log at 1Hz (capture the interesting peaks) and then, instead of saving at 1kHz, save only the average of every 100 samples (which corresponds to compressed files) Is there a way to try these two options on the Waveforms software? with best regards, Eleni

Thank you for getting back! We use the Analog Discovery Pro 3000

I am a first time user and would like to ask for some pointers on the best way to save (relatively) high sampled data (kHz range) for long recording periods (e.g days). I assume one should not opt for the Manual logging, however the automated option seems to crash and miss files. - is there a way to ask for logging of files of a specific duration (e.g 1 hour) consecutively? Would this ensure no intermediate data is lost? - is there a way to disable the plot/interface during measurement? It seems to be slow and freeze often. - is there a way to record at 1kHz but save only the average over 100 samples in a csv file? Thank you in advance for any helpful input!
