The NI-SCOPE SFP acquires, controls,
analyzes, and presents data, similar to
stand-alone oscilloscopes. The
NI-SCOPE SFP operates on the PC, so
you can view and control waveforms
directly from your computer. You can
also run multiple sessions of the
NI-SCOPE SFP simultaneously.

You can modify an NI-SCOPE C
example to create an application with
Microsoft Visual C/C++. Copy an
NI-SCOPE example to copy required
project settings for include paths and
library files. Alternatively, refer to the
Creating an Application with Microsoft
Visual C and C++
topic of the
NI High-
Speed Digitizers Help
to manually add
all required include and library files to
your project.
NI-SCOPE Examples
Examples demonstrate the functionality of the device and serve as programming models and
building blocks for your own applications.
The NI Example Finder is a utility available for some ADEs that organizes examples into
categories and allows you to easily browse and search installed examples. You can see
descriptions and compatible hardware models for each example, or see all the examples
compatible with one particular hardware model.
To locate examples, refer to the following table:
