Not enough sampling rate for PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8

[togtet]

Hi,
I'm trying to getVolatege for 4ch 200hz. Input voltage is 10hz sin curve but from received 5-10% duplicated value from getVoltage()

It's written 1000samples/s (4ch) so 250hz sampling should work.

Thanks you for your advice to fix this not enough sampling rate problem.

Best!

Have you tried an event-driven solution using the VoltageChange event? Setting DataInterval doesn't do anything if you're polling with getVoltage.
