wait for trigger

Hello

 

I need help making a VI for waiting for a trigger. I am working with a TDS 2024 scope.

 

 I have to tell  the scope how long to wait for the trigger and if it does not find it in that time, then it will tell the user that no trigger was found.

Can anyone help me with this?

Time to break out the scope manual and see what commands are needed to achieve this.  Put a VI together and then we can talk about refining it.  🙂

 

Alternatively, you can see if you can find some drivers for this scope.  I think Tektronix has pretty good LV support.

 

(This assumes you know how to use the scope.)
