TDS 310, TDS 320 & TDS 350 Programmer Manual

Programming Examples
The example programs illustrate methods you can use to control the oscilloĆ
scope from the GPIB or RSĆ232 interface. The diskettes that come with this
manual contain listings for these programs.
The programs run on a PC compatible system equipped with a Tektronix
(National Instruments) GPIB board and associated drivers or an RSĆ232
(COM) serial port. For example, the GPIB programs work with a Tektronix
S3FG210 (National Instruments GPIBĆPCII/IIA) GPIB package (see FigĆ
ure 4Ć1).

Programs
All the example GPIB programs assume that the GPIB system recognizes the
oscilloscope as DEV1 and the PC (controller) as GPIB0. You can assign these
names using the IBCONF.EXE program.
The example GPIB software includes:
MEAS: measures a parameter of an oscilloscope waveform.
COMM: shows communication between the controller and the oscilloscope.
