Abstract:
1. A method comprising: generating first input data from a first input signal received at a data acquisition (DAQ) device, wherein generating the first input data comprises repeatedly generating input data from a respective most-recently received portion of the first input signal, wherein the DAQ device comprises a first buffer that is operable to store two frames of the first input data, wherein the DAQ device comprises a first display for displaying at least a half-frame of the first input data, and wherein the DAQ device is operable in a first display mode and in a second display mode; wherein, while the DAQ device is operating in the first display mode or the second display mode, repeatedly updating the first buffer to store two frames of first input data, generated from the most-recently received portion of the first input signal, instead of any other generated first input data; wherein, while the DAQ device is operating in the first display mode, the DAQ device repeatedly providing the first display with at least a half-frame portion of the two frames of first input data stored in the first buffer; and wherein, while the DAQ device is operating in the second display mode, the DAQ device repeatedly receiving, via a wireless network, a respective request to transmit live data to a remote display device and the DAQ device responsively transmitting, via the wireless network, a respective one frame portion of the two frames of first input data stored in the first buffer.
