content: helloI use a DG1022 RIGOL and i wish to pilot it from a file on a USB stick or better from a laptop.for example i do ( manually actually )1) 8 minutes from the sinusoidal frequency 727HTZ 12V and positive offset and Phase 4v 180 ° then2) 4-minute frequency 150 kHz sinusoidal 12V and positive offset and Phase 4v 180 ° then3) 6 minute frequency sinusoidal HZZ 1 12V and positive offset and Phase 4v 180 ° then etc. .........who knows how to drive the generator DG1022 from a computer or USB (I do not happen to have it recognized my PC under Windowssorry for my very bad english, i am living near Paris/franceTanks a lot for you experienceDaniel

content: Get the Programming Guide for the DG1022, available online from Rigol.Get a USB driver for the DG1022. For very old DG1022 this needs to be a proprietary (almost USBTMC) Rigol driver. For later models the USBTMC driver coming with NI VISA is sufficient.Choose a library. One where you can talk to the driver. For old DG1022 versions this would be the Rigol DLL comming with the driver. For later DG1022 versions this could be NI VISA.Choose a programming language. One where you could make use of the library.Write your code, sending the right commands (from the Programming Guide) at the right time to the instrument, via the library and the driver over USB to the instrument.

content: I actually managed to communicate via USB from my computer with windows 7 and between RIGOL DG1022 : with ULTRAWAVE and NI- VISA (Measure & Automation Explorer version 4.6.1f0 )with ni-visa/MAE ( system / devices and interfaces, device, open visa test panel viWrite panel) I could then send the commands documented in the programming guide such as FREQ 10 VOLT 1000 ..... by abut my goal is to achieve automatically place all my orders , for example :frequency 100hz / 10 volts / 5 offset phase / 180 ° / 8 minutesthen frequency 12548hz / 12 volts / offset +2 phase / 180 ° / 4 minutesand frequency 5000Hz / 8 volts / offset +4 / +90 ° Phase / 3 minutesso on .....Ideally I would do this with RIGOL DG1022 but I'm willing to consider another device to the extent that I have at least 12V and an offset of +50 V and a phase of 180 °my goal is to make this knowledge with a program unless you find a generator ( other than velleman DCGU1000 ) with a style tool " with the option " automated wave sequence generator "if anyone can help me it's great even with a party againstthank you so much for the help and information sharingdaniel

content: Hellofrom my PC running windows 7 I try to control my function generator DG1022 RIGOL to make it perform a sequence of frequencies style:100hz / 10 volts / 5 offset phase / 180 ° / 8 minutes12548hz / 12 volts / offset +2 phase / 180 ° / 4 minutes5000Hz / 8 volts / offset +4 / +90 ° Phase / 3 minutesetc. .....I'm looking for someone who has already done this communication and will help me realize even for me (with a party against) this control which is for me in the context of a health problemthank you so much for the help / information sharing / cooperationdaniel
