this call is for rigol dso owners, any model that support visa command through pc usb port...
i'm reviewing my Rigol1052v2.cls Visual Basic 6 class to make compatible with my newer DS1000Z scope. i'm also refactoring the class so it can be more generalized for many scopes, so i need few samples to collect because i'm not sure the general signature of each scope series, so i'm calling for help... if you choose to participate, here's what you should do...
1) download the attach zipped exe file, check for virus to be sure...
2) connect your rigol scope to pc usb port
3) run the exe and press test button
the exe will report as such...
Connection Success...
myVer = 1
ID = USB0::0x1AB1::0x0588::DS1K00005888::INSTR
myVer is the class internal parm for compatibility, it got nothing specific to your scope. no worry there. whats most important is the portion "::DS1K" excluding the double quotes. the above code is for my DS1052E scope but i'm not sure if the "K" is applicable for all DS1000E series or what? the same to the other models.. you may change the other number with "*" if you think its too sensitive.. post here or PM me the report along with your scope model number, i prefer post here so other developers may share the info. thats it thanks...
edit:
sorry i forgot to tell. you need to install the dso driver and visa driver beforehand to make the exe works... i cannot attach my visa driver here as provided in DS1000E cd because its >2MB size. you can find it in the net but i cant find it, there are many variant of it i dont know which work which wont... pm me if you need it i'll find another way to make my visa available... scan with antivirus to be sure. i'm on the latest Avast the file passed, but maybe you have a stronger antivirus... ymmv..
