Unfortunately it sounds like you'll need to send the instrument in for repair. Request an RMA here: https://www.tek.com/en/services/repair/rma-request

Select instrument and put in the Model, Serial number and Host ID.

The search function in NIMAX doesn't always find instruments. To connect to your scope, navigate to Devices and Interfaces in NIMAX and select Tools. Hover over NI-VISA and select VISA Interactive Control. This will open a new window and you can enter in the scope identification in the Resource to Open bar. The identification will be in the format "USB::Vendor ID::Model ID::Serial Number::INSTR". You can find this information for your scope under Utility > I/O > USB Device port. Once you have typed in the ID, hit enter and this will open the Interactive Control window and allow you to communicate with your scope.

Any errors with VXI-11 indicate that NI-MAX is trying to communicate with LAN instead of USB. Have you tried communicating with the scope using different apps such as OpenChoice Desktop, or by pinging the IP from the command prompt?

The SX scope trigger system is specified to 25GHz. Above 28GHz, you can try timeout trigger but it's not guaranteed.

I would suggest that you synchronize AFGs from the same series, like the AFG31102 and 31052, but it is possible to sync an AFG31000 to an AFG3000. To sync these instruments, you will need to follow the instructions for each individual AFG series to setup the respective units. The 31000 and 3000 AFG series use the same connections, but they have different processes to setup the connection. You will likely also need to input a decent amount of Trigger delay on the master AFG using the AFG31000.

The TRCP3000 has a coil diameter of 8.5mm. I'm not sure exactly how the bus bars are but that should hopefully give you some idea of what it will/wont fit around.

Based on the information that you have provided it sounds like there is a significate DC component to the signal. This would lead to the signal jumping when the power is toggled.

Unfortunately there was not a firmware update to the DPO4000 to include support for the TPR1000. For a full list of compatible scopes please see page viii of the TPR1000 user manual.

It is possible to log your data straight from the scope to a USB drive. To do this, you would use the Act on Event feature which will allow you to set the scope to save specified data on certain events, such as a Trigger. This feature is located in the Trigger menu under the Mode & Holdoff tab. Select Act on Trigger and the Act on Event menu will pop-up on the screen. There is a matrix of actions and events to choose from and a Save Configuration to define the location and file format of your data.

However, this solution will most likely give you lots of data and might fill up your USB before the collection is over. We have some software options available that might make capturing your data easier. I suggest that you look at TekScope Utility, a software with lots of configurability that will make saving data over a long period of time potentially easier. This software will allow you to save specified data formats at time intervals over the length of the test to a specific folder on your computer.

I would suggest taking a look at both of these options and maybe running some tests to see what works best for you.
