Digital Oscilloscopes - XStreamDSO - Remote Control

Problem:

Where do I find Remote Control and Automation Commands for an XStream Digital Oscilloscope?

Solution:

The first step in remotely controlling your Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscope is understanding remote control, and automation commands.

Here is a link to our Remote Control Manual

Here is a link to our Automation Manual

And finally, here are links for the Automation Command Reference Manual:
WaveSurfer & HDO4K
WaveRunner & HDO6K
WavePro, WaveMaster, and LabMaster

The Remote Control Manual will have the IEEE 488 (GPIB) commands. (These are all written to the device as a string).

The Automation Manual will introduce you to the XStream Browser (an interactive application on the scope) and the Automation Commands. (The automation commands can be used when there is no equivalent remote command).

The Reference Manual will cover most of the Automation Commands.

The XStream browser introduction can be found in the remote manual on page 72 and in the Automation Manual on page 1-4. (It is recommend to get familiar with the browser. It will eliminate the need for the Automation documentation).

When you send an automation command in the 488 format, (Sent as a string) it has to be sent with the VBS command (covered in the remote control manual on page 71 and in more detail on page 248).

It is also covered in the Automation Manual on page 1-28 (This actually shows the syntax to use).
