 Hello,  I want use cascading of channels for 2048 cell - SetChannelConfig(0,8,4), but i can't understand how . Please, help me. Where i can dowload 2048_mode.ppt. (I found information about this file in DRS.cpp  (3445 line  "/ combine two halfs correctly, see 2048_mode.ppt")

Best regards,

You have to combine two channels into one, and depending on where the domino wave stopped, things get a bit complicated. I attach 2048_mode.ppt for your reference, but am not sure if this will really help.

Sorry for my question.

 I'm trying change "drs_exam.cpp" for read 2048 cell. 

I'm using SetChannnelConfig(0,8,4) and this code in "drs_exam.cpp" :

              ...

              float arrX[2048];

              float arrY[2048];

              ....

             b->GetTime(0, b->GetTriggerCell(0), arrX);

             b->GetWave(0, 0, arr.Y); 

             ....

Return 2048 values in arrX[2048] - correct values, but  in arrY[2048] -  not correct values.

   I can't understand what values return "GetWave" function. Please, say me how make, that GetWave function return correct values.  " not - correct values "(i mean that i give signal in drs bord and values not true.) 

Best regards,

The evaluation board V4 does not support cascading by default. You have to connect each input to two channels, which can in principle be made by soldering some zero Ohm resistors on the board, but these are tiny parts and not everybody can do it. Note that the 2048 cell mode is an option when ordering the board. So first make sure that you can modify the board before trying to run the software.
