How to manipulate buffering and reading

[hosa]

Hello,

I am questioning if there is such possibility or not:

For a DAQ board, such as 6070E, I want to set an operation like this:

Monitor data at a specified sampling rate, then buffer some samples (e.g. samples 1 to 5 ) in the memory of the board. Then, again, monitoring continues and at another time some other samples should be buffered (e.g. samples 6-10) . At the end of progress, all the buffered samples (1 to 10) should be read, and then displayed.

Some solutions I am thinking about are :

1- Asynchronous acquisition

2- customize frequency

Every hint would be appreciated.

Thank you

This is probably best handled in software where you can select particular subsets of data based on whatever criteria you have in mind.   I view this as a type of producer-consumer architecture where you monitor the acq data coming in, and occasionally write a portion off to a queue.  At the end of the test, retrieve all the data from the queue for display / logging.
