Adding More Channels in WaveForms<\/h2>\n

Let’s assume you have an Analog Discovery 2<\/a> and love it, but your setup needs more than two oscilloscope channels and the more powerful ADP3450<\/a> with FOUR oscilloscope channels would be a bit overkill, like driving a rocket ship to the grocery store. Wouldn’t it be great if a single instance of WaveForms could manage multiple devices to result in the equivalent of a multi-channel scope\/generator?\u00a0 Luckily, the advanced triggering options in WaveForms will let you synchronize multiple Digilent Test and Measurement devices so that they can capture, or provide, data simultaneously.
