Follow the manual? That seems like a good first step. If there is an SDK for it, you'll probably need that. Or if there's a program that talks to it, and that program understands ActiveX (and you're using Windows), then you can use ActiveX, but you'll need the manual to know the methods and properties. You can also contact the manufacturer and ask for MATLAB interfacing software - maybe they have it and you just have to ask them.
