2.2.4. AqDx Accumulated Waveform Example VI
This VI demonstrates how to use the Accumulate Waveform function of the Acqiris Digitizer Driver. It finds and
initializes a digitizer, sets the basic parameters according to the controls on the front panel, and then acquires and
accumulates waveforms as the user requests. Note that the front panel controls should be set to their desired values
before the VI is run.
2.3. MATLAB
MATLAB is a very powerful environment to analyze and display data. The MEX interface can be used with
MathWorks MATLAB 7.3 or a newer version. The interface from it to the Acqiris products offers simple direct
access to the Acqiris driver. An example is in the directory <AcqirisDxRoot>\MATLAB.
To use it,
either set the MATLAB current directory (cd Command) to <AcqirisDxRoot>\MATLAB
or the file from that directory to the directory of your choice.
GetStarted
Filename: Aq_GetStarted.m
Argument: No Argument
This first example shows you how to perform a single acquisition. The desired configuration is loaded. You
then start the acquisition, and read and plot the acquired data.
2.4. Linux
For information on the Linux installation and included examples please refer to the README file which is located
in the /Linux folder in the root of the supplied installation CDROM.
