Need help with Tektronix oscillscope...

I am having trouble displaying a graph from a Tektronix TDS420A. I need to
get the graph to display on a "realtime" mode, but everytime I go to display
the graph, the program will reset the oscillscope. I have tried all I know
(which isn't a whole lot, just started with LabVIEW). Any info that anyone
can provide will be grealty appreciated. Thanks for any help.

Hi Darrell

I'm assuming that the program is written in LV

Have a look at the diagram for the program, see if you can find the Initialisation VI for the TDS420A. Check if the 'Reset'
connection is wired with a 'true' boolean constant. I if so change to 'False'. If the 'Reset' connection is not wired then the
input node is probably defaulted to 'true', if so then connect a boolean constant that has been made 'false'.

I hope this helps. If you want you can sent me the VI to me personally.
