Advanced MATLAB: Capturing data from an instrument

In an earlier post, I covered how to collect data from a data acquisition board. [click here] This post will do something similar for an oscilloscope. This time instead of using the Data Acquisition Toolbox we will be using the Instrument Control Toolbox.

If you are connecting to hardware for capturing data and then bringing that data into MATLAB later for post test analysis, you should really consider bringing the data into MATLAB directly so you can do your analysis as the test is running.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
