http://www.ni.com/visa/). Here, the default installation path is C:\Program Files\IVI Foundation\VISA.
Here, the USB interface of the oscilloscope is used to communicate with the PC and please use a USB cable
to connect the USB Device interface at the rear panel of the oscilloscope to the PC. After successful
connection, turn on the instrument. A "Found New Hardware Wizard" dialog box appears on the PC at
the first connection. Please follow the instructions to install the "USB Test and Measurement Device".
By now, the programming preparations are finished. In the following part, detailed introductions are given
