Instrument Control Toolbox™ 2.6

Supported Hardware - Tektronix

MATLAB supports Tektronix instruments including its arbitrary waveform generators, oscilloscopes, and signal analyzers through the Instrument Control Toolbox.

Visit MATLAB Central for the latest list of MATLAB instrument drivers available for Tektronix instruments.  An instrument driver allows you to communicate with your instrument using higher-level commands.

If a MATLAB instrument driver is not available for your Tektronix instrument, Instrument Control Toolbox can still be used to communicate with your instrument.  You can communicate directly with the instrument using one or more instrument communication protocols, including GPIB, VISA, TCP/IP, UDP, and serial. Alternatively, you can communicate with the instrument if the instrument supports an instrument standard such as IVI, LXI, or VXIplug&play.
