    Type 5500A 4. Parametrization of KiDAQ Device and Channels Use of different Sampling Rates reduce amount recorded data recommended to select different sampling rates for different types of input signals. As a rule of thumb, we recommend a sampling rate, which is about 5 to 10 times higher than the expected signal bandwidth.
