Where are you stuck? How familiar are you with LabVIEW? You should be able to translate a manual setup to a programmatic setup by studying the programming manual and the functions in the driver. I have not downloaded the driver but typically, you turn on context help and get a description of the VI and the controls/indicators.

Programatic Instrument Setup 101:

1. Setup the scope exactly the way you want it.  WRITE DOWN EVERY STEP.

2.  Find the functions that will do the steps you performed.

3.  Write your code using those functions.

You don't know how to work your instrument?  Then get somebody to teach you how it works.  You won't get anywhere until you do.
