Logging each waveform discretely

[StephenRobertson]

Hello,

I am trying to set up an extended test to monitor the current profile at switch on of a piece of equipment.  I''m using a DPO3034 scope and the Tektronix edition of signal express.  The scope is configured to trigger each time the unit switches on and I would like to capture each waveform (~100 secs each) as individual waveforms.

Using signal express I can get it to record all these waveforms but the playback view is a continuous time period whereas I would like to step from capture to capture.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Welcome to the NI Discussion Forums!

In the National Instruments version, if the waveform length is the same each time the DAQmx Acquire step has timing settings which will allow you to change from a continuous stream to a stream of "N samples". I've attached an image to show you what I mean. Is there no similar setting for the Tektronix version? Let me know and I'll try to find out more information for you.
