Multiple TDS scopes not getting new data each shot

I have 5 TDS3054 scopes connected via ethernet to a computer running signal express tektronix version. I can control all of the scopes and talk to them just fine. My problem is that I am using a single shot mode and signal express does not seem to get new data from all of the scopes each new shot. It seems to get new data for the one that is currently selected, but not necessarily all of them. I guess my question is when does signal express pull data off of the scopes. It resets them in single sequence mode, waits for a trigger, I fire a shot. Is it supposed to automatically pull data off a given scope once that scope has triggered? does it wait for all of the scopes to trigger? Is there a way to hit some button and get it to pull all of the data off assuming all the scopes have traces on them?  Sorry  if this question seems stupid but I seem to have no problem if I use a single scope, running several is making it difficult.

 

Thanks in advance if you can help, if you need any more info let me know.

Hello,

 

If you are asking whether Signal Express can run tasks in parallel, it will not, it executes each step in sequence.

 

Thanks,
