Hi,

I´m programming with Labview a MSOX3034A scope and I'm not able to find a way to configure a TCP202A with current drivers. Has someone face same situation?

Beforehand, thank you for your comments.

Regards!

You want to know how to get a non-Agilent probe to work with an Agilent Scope using LabView?

First, does the probe work with the scope manually? If not, then it won't work programmatically.

Second, What do you mean by configure?

Third, why not just get an Agilent Current probe. Something like the 1147B or N2893A is fully supported by the Agilent scope, and except for Peak current, has better specs...

Hello Al,

Thank you for your response.

I can set up the non-Agilent current probe manually without a problem using Probe Menu and choosing TCP202A from the available list.

When I said "configure" I meant to set impedance, attenuation, units, scale, etc. that by "ordinary" commands you are able to use... but when you have a TCP202A with its N2744A adapter, you get errors once you try to set impedance, units or attenuation. If you use :CHAN2:PROB:ID? you get as response "AutoProbe"; but I'm not able to do the same probe selection by commands.

I'm getting local support from Agilent in order to solve this issue.

Cheers!
