How i can avoid the delay in tektronix scope using labview drivers

[Polisetti]

I have attached the image of scope. Help me to eliminate that delay using drivers....

Thanks in advance

Hi Polisetti,

which "delay" are you talking about?

Just guessing: there's a LED lighted up next to a "Delay" button in the Horizontal settings of the scope!?

What does the manual of your scope say about that "Delay" button?

Which commands does it recommend to control the function of that button?

Hi,

I want to take my oscilloscope image with 2 waveforms one above the other. I tried using the instrument drivers of oscilloscope Tektronix TDS3014C . Drivers version is 2.3 which is compatible for my labview version. How I can get the channel 1 waveform on above half of display and channel 2 on below half....????

Thanks in advance......

Hi Polisetti,

this basically is the same question as above: "How do I set some parameters of my scope?"

The answer also is the same: read the (programming) manual of your scope. It will tell you which SCPI commands to use (and their parameters)…

I'm using instrument driver and I'm able to set the triggering point as per my requirement using "acquisition start" option in acquisition configuration block....But it enabling the delay button.......

Did you even try to dig through the palette of the device driver?  For the delay, look at the VIs in the Configuration->Trigger palette.

As far as your channel configurations, maybe you should try tie Configuration->Channel palette.

The tools to do 95% of the functions are in that driver.  You just need to spend a small amount of time digging.
