Hi All,
We are trying to use the LeCroy Wavestation 2052 to set up a 2 channel frequency sweep for a new Mass Spectrometer. I have looked through the manual and SCPI commands for this model and formatted some VIs to configure the basic wave parameters for each channel, then put both channels into sweep mode with an external trigger. The problem is that once the commands are sent it takes up to 2-3 seconds for all of the settings to change. In that time the external trigger has already been sent, causing channel 1 to start the sweep before channel 2 is configured. The Wavestation is currently set to USBMTC (I also have the option for USBRAW).
I am currently using LabView version 15.0 with the VISA drivers. Everything is connected and working, but the settings are changing too slow for it to be effective. Eventually the scan times we will be performing will be in the low millisecond range, so I'd like to figure out how to configure the VISA commands to not have this delay. I relatively new to Labview so forgive me if there's some glaring ovbious setting I have overlooked.
Attached are the VI's I have been using to configure and write the wave parameters. I would greatly appreciate any help!
