DMM4040 Sample Rate RS 232

Hello,

I'm using the Tektronix DMM4040 with LabView Signal Express Tektronix Edition and I want to log DC current measurements with a sampling rate of at least 3kHz. Is that in any way possible over RS232 or LAN? 
I already tried to log the readings, but can't get more than 2 measurements per second.

 

I'll be thankful for any help...

I would contact Tektronix tech support to be sure, but I'm guessing you are limited on the hardware side as typically DMMs cannot sample in the kHz range. You should use an Oscope or NI DAQ card if you are wanting to sample at 3 kHz. You communication protocol (RS232 or LAN) will not be your limiting factor.
