Example 3: Script to Measure the Rise Time of the Signal on C1 and Display It in a
Popup Window
This example configures the DSO to measure the rise time of the signal on C2, take a single acquisition, and
present the results in a popup dialog. The example requires no additional software to be installed on the
instrument, since it relies on the built-in Visual Basic Script interpreter.
' VBScript example
' Configure the DSO to measure the rise time of the signal
' on Channel 1 and display it in a popup message box.
' Connect to the DSO
Set app = CreateObject("LeCroy.XStreamDSO")
' Restore the instrument to its default state
app.SetToDefaultSetup
' Stop acquisitions during setup
app.Acquisition.TriggerMode = "Stopped"
' Turn C2 off (default state leaves C1 and C2 On)
app.Acquisition.C2.View = False
' Configure P1=rise(C1)
app.Measure.MeasureMode = "MyMeasure"
app.Measure.P1.View =
True
app.Measure.P1.ParamEngine = "rise"
' Take a single acquisition, force after 2 seconds if it doesn't trigger
app.Acquisition.Acquire 2, True
' Present the rise time in a popup message box
MsgBox app.Measure.P1.Out.Result.Value & "s", vbOKOnly, "Rise time of C1"
' Clean up
Set app = Nothing
