Hi Pao,

 

How can I replicate the screen of a Tektronix oscilloscope DPO 2024

Use a camera (or your mobile) to make a picture of your scope.

Place that image (maybe after some image processing) on the frontpanel of your VI.

 

Is this all you need?

 

Best regards,

If you're talking about downloading a screenshot from the scope to your PC, you're going to have to look through the programming documentation and any software APIs for the scopes and see if they provide any kind of "screen dump" command that'll cause them to send the image data out to a comm port. What have you done so far with regards to interfacing with the scopes?

For the Textronix oscilloscope, look for the "hardcopy" command.  There are also a few threads around here that discuss this (such as this one).
