single triggered acquisition on the scope timeout problems

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello Everyone

 

I am trying to do a single triggered acquisition on the scope. I initialize my scope and configure the settings. I then

enter a loop at set the trigger level and then want to read a waveform from the acquisition. But, it does not seem to have a timeout.

It just reads the waveform right after I set the trigger level even if it did not reach the trigger level. I think it does not wait for the trigger.

Is there a way to fix this?

 

I am using a TDS 2024B scope and am using the drivers. I thought I could use the VISA Enable Event and use Trigger as the event type for the input and then

use the Wait for SRQ and have a timeout of 25000ms but it did not work. I receive an error saying:

 

Specified event type is not supported by the resource.

 

I don't know what to do for the timeout. Is there any other ideas I could use or am I doing it wrong?

 

I attached the vi. I am using LabView 2010.

 

Thanks!

Midna

Thanks RTSLVU!

 

I needed to change the timeout constant to fix it.
