Title: Rigol DS1104ZS - Save Data to Matlab
Post by: Tobolf on December 21, 2016, 10:12:02 am

Hey,

i have this oszilloscope and would like to storage the data and edit/plot them in Matlab.
I tried the "readRigolWaveform"-file from Matlab, but it doesnt work. I get following error: "Incorrect first two bytes. This files does not seem to be a Rigol waveform file."
I saved the waveform as .wfm, so does the general code changed over time?

Are there other possibilities to get the data?
To save the csv-file takes too long..

Thanks in advance
Tobolf

The wfm format has changed since that code. I ended up using CSV, and yes it does take a while to process.
Maybe you can use a lower record length to reduce the time a bit?
