Calculating file sizes
File size is limited by the restraints of the operating system (generally, 2 GB) and the available memory space on your hard drive or disk (depending to which you save the file).
Windows OS
Mac OS
AcqKnowledge 3.9.0 and above files (including merged files) are not limited
AcqKnowledge 3.8.2 and below files (including merged files) cannot exceed 2 GB
BSL Lessons and BSL PRO files cannot exceed 2 GB
U se the following equation to calculate the memory required for your acquisition:
Memory required (bytes) = [(8C + 2A ) x S x T ] + 5 k bytes
C = Number of calculation channels
A = Number of analog channels
S = Sample rate (samples/second)
T = Recording time (acquisition length)
5 k bytes = memory required to store file information
Refer to the software guide available under the program Help menu for setup and analysis guidelines when working with large files.
