Picture strains after hardcopy

Hi,

I am reading BMP hardcopy from my scope via ethernet to my harddrive. It is working fine so far. But why do my pictures look like in the attachment? (attachment needs to be renamed to .bmp) If I read it with TekW in Word there are no strains at all.

Hi, can you please describe what you are exactly doing?

 

What kind of scope is being used?

Are you programming with LabVIEW? Version?

Are you using an instrument driver for the scope? Which one?

...

 

regards

I am reading the picture with VC++ using the latest NI Driver. Scope is TDS 3034B from Tektronix connected via ethernet.

 

Scop gets the command 

"HARDCopy STARt"

then I reading the Hardcopy with

"Status = tkds30xx_ReadInstrData (session, 512000, image, &BuffLenout1); "

to the array "image".

That array is written to a file on my harddrive.

Hi, since I don´t have a scope of the series you are using in our office, I´m afraid I cannot do much for you in this case.

NI is hosting the Third-Party-Drivers on its Instrument Driver Network Pages, but we don´t support them. You should address

this directly to the product vendor, since they have the capability of reproducing and testing this issue.
