Connecting to LabMaster 10 Zi-A by Teledyne in Python
Instrument Card
The LabMaster 10 Zi is the world’s highest-performance modular oscilloscope - it breaks channel count barriers and provides more “bandwidth density”. The modular design provides the simplest upgrade path in bandwidth and channel count, with one acquisition module providing four channels at 36 GHz or two channels at 65 GHz, with capability for up to 20 acquisition modules

PROTOCOLS > SCPI
To connect to a LabMaster 10 Zi-A Oscilloscope using Instrumentkit, you can use the following code:
import instrumentkit as ik
# Connect to the oscilloscopeaddress = "TCPIP0::192.168.0.1::INSTR"oscilloscope = ik.teledyne.LabMaster10ZiA.open_visa(address)
# Perform operations on the oscilloscope# For example, you can read the waveform from a channelchannel = oscilloscope.channel[0]xdat, ydat = channel.read_waveform()
# Close the connection to the oscilloscopeoscilloscope.close()This code connects to the oscilloscope using the open_visa method from the ik.teledyne.LabMaster10ZiA class. You need to provide the appropriate VISA address for your oscilloscope.
Once connected, you can perform various operations on the oscilloscope. In the example code, it reads the waveform from the first channel using the read_waveform method of the channel object.
Finally, don’t forget to close the connection to the oscilloscope using the close method to release any resources.
