Data Acquisition Toolbox

Opening the Oscilloscope

To open the Oscilloscope, create an analog input object for the Measurement Computing Demo-Board, add two hardware channels, and supply the object to the softscope function.

• ai = analoginput('mcc',0)
  addchannel(ai,0:1)
  softscope(ai)
  

As shown below, the Oscilloscope opens with a single display containing a marker for each added hardware channel, a channel scaling panel, and a trigger panel.

Note that you can also open the Oscilloscope by

• Typing softscope without any arguments and using the Hardware Configuration GUI to configure the hardware device.
• Supplying a configuration file as an input argument to softscope. Refer to Saving and Loading the Oscilloscope Configuration for more information.
