RIGOL 3 Programming Demos
3-2 DS2000E Programming Guide
Programming Preparations
Before programming, make the following preparations.
1. Install the Ultra Sigma common PC software. You can download it from RIGOL official website
(www.rigol.com). Then, follow the instructions to install the software. When Ultra Sigma is installed,
NI-VISA library is installed automatically. In this manual, the default installation directory is
C:\Program Files\IVI Foundation\VISA.
2. In this manual, the USB Device interface of the oscilloscope is used to communicate with the PC.
Please connect the USB Device interface on the rear panel of the oscilloscope with the PC using a
USB cable. You can also use the LAN or GPIB (with the USB-GPIB interface converter provided by
RIGOL) interface to communicate with the PC.
3. After the oscilloscope is correctly connected to the PC, power on and start the oscilloscope.
4. At this point, the "Found New Hardware Wizard" dialog box appears on the PC. Please install "USB
Test and Measurement Device (IVI)" according to the instructions (for the installation method, refer
to
DS2000E User’s Guide
).
5. Acquire the USB VISA descriptor of the oscilloscope. Start Ultra Sigma and the instrument resource
found is displayed under the "RIGOL Online Resource" directory in the Ultra Sigma interface together
with the instrument model and USB information. In this demo, the USB VISA descriptor of the
oscilloscope used is USB0::0x1AB1::0x04B0::DS2A0000000000::INSTR.
By now, the programming preparations are finished. In the following part, detailed introductions are given
about the programming demos in the Excel, LabVIEW, MATLAB, Visual Basic 6.0, and Visual C++ 6.0
development environments.
