Hi.. I am trying to automate a 3054 B Textronix oscilloscope to acquire waveforms. The sequence of the program are as follows:
1. Set up 3054 B.
2. ACquire waveform
3. Write to file.
4. Proceed to next measurement.
And the loop repeats and for each measurement, the waveform needs to be recorded. The problem is in the first step the waveform is recorded but however once the acquisition is stopped and the data is recorded, 3054 B doesnot automatically acquires the next waveform.
I have to clear the acquisition manually using the RUN/STOP button on the front panel and only then the next waveform is acquired or else it just retains the previously acquired waveform in the display. Can anyone help me how to solve the problem so that in each step it can save the data and then clear the display and prepare to acuire the new waveform.
To acuire the waveform, I have used the command:
:ACQ : STAT RUN and then :ACQ : STOPA SEQ
The data has been recorded in the same way as the labview driver for 3054 B.
After the acquisition, I used :ACQ : STAT STOP.
I just the display to show the live waveform once the acquisition and data recording is finished. I checked the 3054 B manual but couldnot understand how to deal with this.
Any help will be highly appreciated. This is also my first post here, so if there is any mistake please let me know.
With Regards
Samik
