Agilent DSO5054A waveform read problem

Solved!
Go to solution

I'm trying to read oscilloscope waveform through LabVIEW but when I read the waveform, instead of actual voltage, numbers ranging from 0 to ~2000 is shown in LabVIEW VI. When I vary the position of the waveform on the oscilloscope, these numbers also change. Please check the below image. Is there any settings that I am missing? The voltages on the scope are around 5 volt. Please help.

Are you using an Agilent instrument driver subVI to get this waveform? If yes, can you please tell us what driver (model/version) are you using and what's the name of the subVI that produced this waveform? I'll have to download the drivers and take a look inside that VI.

Hi,

 

    Yes, I'm using Agilent 6000 series drivers for LabVIEW  (Driver page). I am using LabVIEW 2015. I'm using "Read Multiple Waveforms.vi" to get the waveforms.

Hi,

 

You're using the wrong driver.
