The following example shows how to set up the board for Multiple Recording in standard mode. The setup would be similar in FIFO mode, but the memsize register would not be used.

SpcSetParam (hDrv, SPC_MULTI,			1);	//	Enables	Multiple Recording
SpcSetParam (hDrv, SPC_POSTTRIGGER,			1024);	//	Set the	segment size to 1024 samples		to	4096 samples
SpcSetParam	(hDrv,	SPC_MEMSIZE,	4096);	//	Set the	total memsize	for recording
SpcSetParam	(hDrv,	SPC_TRIGGERMODE,		//	so that	actually four	segments will	be	recorded
			TM_TTLPOS);//		Set the	triggermode to external TTL		mode (rising edge)
