Problem:

How do I use the Xstream Browser to find Automation commands?

Solution:

You can find all of the Automation commands to control your digital oscilloscope in the XStream Browser. You’ll find the Xstream Browser on your oscilloscope’s Windows desktop.

Open the XStream Browser and connect to the oscilloscope application by clicking the icon on the top left.

Find the commands by navigating into the folder tree of each category.

For example, to change the coupling setting on Channel 1 of your oscilloscope, navigate to LeCroy.XStreamDSO\Acquisition\C1\

Selecting the setting displays the automation command. Right-click the setting to copy or set the value of the automation command. 

One may send automation commands in almost any text-based language from a remote PC using the vbs remote-control command. Here are two examples using our Active DSO ActiveX control.

Matlab:  invoke(DSO,'WriteString','vbs "app.Acquisition.C1.Coupling=DC50"',true);

Python:  scope.WriteString(“vbs ‘app.Acquisition. C1.Coupling=DC50’ ",1);

You can also use automation commands on the oscilloscope with scripts, CustomDSO, or the XDEV option.
