Hi

Yes, you can use LabVIEW to access the programming interface for your scope via the "call library function" node.

LabVIEW 8.6

If I save data from my PICO3205 can I import this data into LabVIEW to that I can apply filter analysis on the data. When I purchased this scope, I was told that I could record hours of data and then play it back into LabVIEW. How can I get information on how to do this?

Hi

This sounds like a LabVIEW question rather than a Pico question. If you want to read in text files, there are a number of LabVIEW functions for doing this. See the LabVIEW help files for details of these.

Hi,

Are you looking for specific assistance with one of the example LabVIEW files in the PicoScope 3000 SDK?

Starting from the beginning the process to go through is as follows:
  • Install the latest version of PicoScope 6 on your PC (ensures the latest build drivers are loaded)
  • Download and extract the contents of the PS3000sdk_r10_3_0_3.zip file to your PC.
  • Extract the contents of the ps3000_labview_examples.zip file.
  • Connect the scope to your PC and wait for the driver to load.
  • Open one of the examples e.g. ps3000_runBlock.vi and view the front panel and block diagram.
  • Run the example using highlight execution mode to see how values flow around the diagram.
  • You can then edit the arguments to the various function calls in the block diagram depending on the requirements.
  • Refer also to the Programmer's guide in the SDK directory for more information on the various function calls and the data types to use.
There is also a forum area for LabVIEW questions which you can search through:

I hope this helps - please reply if you have any further queries.

Best wishes,
