We just bough a bunch of the 2204A PC scopes. So far I'm pretty impressed with the scope itself & the application, especially for a device in this price range.
However, it would be really nice for the students taking the LabView class if the supplied examples worked as well. There seem to be issues with the DLLs supplied & the way LabView calls certain initialization functions. The names appear not to match. I tried to fix it manually, but to no avail.
Any clues as to when the SDK examples might work with LabView 2015?
I can't check the zip files until later, I am using a phone at present.
One thought are you using the blue Pico USB cable supplied with the units, it you are occasionally getting relay clicks it may be a power issue. Have you also tried the PicoScope 6 software to see if that functions correctly.
The PicoScope6 application runs without any issues!
It's just the LabView examples that are unwilling to cooperate. I mentioned the relays clicking, as I was step-by-step trying to fix the DLL calls & it seems some of the initialization code did something (at least once).
The LabVIEW examples were created using a 32-bit version of LabVIEW and so when you try to load them using a 64-bit version of LabVIEW, the reference to the dll is lost. This means that you have to select the 64-bit dll in the Function tab of the Call Library Function dialog, and select the correct function.
You should find that once you select the location of the 64-bit dll when prompted either on loading the example or changing a function call, the path to the dll will be set for other Call Library Function nodes.
You may also wish to refer to this post (see item 9).
If you could please e-mail support@picotech.com indicating which data collection mode you are using, we can provide a set of files for you to use. These will then be made available via a future SDK example update.
Changing the dll & function names doesn't fix the missing vi for the AWG example.
Furthermore, it would be really helpful if the SDK contained per-device folders & take the guesswork out of the question, which examples might work for the device. There is none for the 22xx devices.
