Instrumentation Control of Tektronix Scope with NI-VISA

$

Hey all,

 

I'm conducting some research that uses a Tektronix DPO5204 Oscilloscope, and I've gotten it to configured through NI-VISA to talk to a PC (tested through the VISA Test Panel, sent a *IDN? command, and returned info from the scope correctly). Can also ping the device through a prompt window.

 

I have tried loading up the NI-VISA examples that came with NI-VISA version 17.5, but loading these up in Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 has yielded errors, which I'm sure has to do with the code being written in 2005 and we are now using a much later version of Microsoft Visual Studio. I was wondering if there was any up-to-date examples that I could look at for basic communication between the Scope and the PC. I have tried looking at the NI-VISA User Manual as well as the Programming Guide, but the examples don't seem to work in there either. Thanks all.
