I wrote this code for the TDS3000, but it looks like the TDS5000 series behaves the same (as far as SCPI commands).

Why didn't you copy the code from that other thread? Did you pay any attention to the loop around the read of 20k bytes at a time?

[syrpimp]

i used it but it didnt work...

[Dennis_Knutson]

Well, reading only 20k bytes certainly won't work. There is another example on the linked thread with a fixed byte count. Try that.

Now Its' working i used 200K.. thank you guys for all the help and time for this. thank you. crossrulz(soon to be knight of NI) thanks for the very good Idea and  Dennis_Knutson for the time, without your help i cannot figure it out. KUDOS!

As a little advice, use the PNG format instead of the BMP format.  PNG files are a lot smaller (which means faster transfer).  Go back to my other thread to see more of the discussion of why you should use the PNG format.
