Rigol DS1000z/2000/4000/6000 Waveform Capture Utility
<< < (6/10) > >>
aroby:
Just tried 2.2.3 with USB.  I can connect and it detects a DS2000 series.  I can change channels (although 3 & 4 are not present on the scope!).  I can't do a continuous sample and get a waveform - scope just displays input is invalid, changing the scope scales has no effect on the charts, I can't get a screenshot.  And when I exit, I get a dialog box saying Resetting VI: Rigol_Capture.vi, which I can only get rid of by killing the process.

So, for me, 2.2.3 is broken compared to 2.2.1

Its very odd that that real-time mode has broken, I have not made any changes.

I took a look at the ds2000 programming guide, looks like prehaps the ds2000 needs a few extra commands to get the memory buffer. Also removed a command from realtime mode, prehaps it will work now.

Also added a manual model override function. -so if you were using tcpip in version 2.2.1 it should work now provided you set the model. Actually I had no idea labview automatically handles VISA over TCPIP like that. So that's a win

V2.2.3.1

2.2.3 and 2.2.3.1 are unusable to me... The most I can get is a screen capture, and not always. In other tabs the program just freezes and I have to kill via Windows Task Manager

2.2 worked at least somewhat, I can make screenshots, in Real Time Capture it displays a static picture of waveform and FFT (no real time update), but in Long memory Capture just displays a straight line  in Waveform window. Anyway, 2.2 at least not freezing and does grab some data.

Bud:
Just discovered something. If in 2.2.3.1 I select the device *and* set Manual Model Overwrite to DS2000, then the program behaves similar to 2.2

 I can do screen capture, I can see static waveform/FFT in Real Time Capture tab (still no realtime update, though the program reflects X and Y scale changes if I change it on the scope) , nothing displayed in Long Memory capture, though I can see the "LED" lights blinking as I press Capture button

EDIT: I was in USB mode
EDIt2: TCPIP did not work. The program just froze
EDIT3: I am on Win7 64 , 32-bit LabView Runtime

Hi
V2.2.3.1 has the following issues:
- If I start out with  Long Memory Capture it works.
- If I then switch to Realtime waveform, no waveform is shown on the screen (but it does update, the graticules jump in some out-ranging mode?)
- Screenshot still does not work.
-  If I then go back to Long Memory Capture the program locks up and I need to force-close it
nb: after the first malfunction the scope shows the "Parameter Limited" error, which stays there
