NI-Scope Documentation

I am trying to design a user-interface that displays real-time data for a system that interfaces via the ni-scope driver.

I had a look at the example that fetches a waveform and plots the data (https://uk.mathworks.com/help/instrument/examples/fetch-waveforms-through-niscope-matlab-instrument-driver-in-simulation-mode.html) It is clear to me from this example that the niscope driver has some specific functions and parameters (e.g. Configurationfunctionsvertical) that are used in MATLAB.

As such, it would be helpful if I could be directed to the relevant documentation that will provide me with a comprehensive list of the functions and parameter reference for niscope in MATLAB.

Thank you in advance

The relevant documentation comes from National Instrument, not Mathworks. The driver manual should have been installed when you installed NI-Scope. Otherwise, you may be able to download it from here (may require being registered on NI and may not correspond to the version you're using).

Thank you for your response but I am not sure that this is exactly what I am looking for.

In the functions reference, it gives the desired information if one were to program in C and not MATLAB. This is crucial as the function calls and parameter names are slightly different (compare the Configurationfunctionsvertical in MATLAB with the niScope_ConfigureVertical in C). What I need is the MATLAB analogue for the documentation you sent.

"Use the MATLAB Instrument Driver Editor (midedit) to view other properties and functions that allow you to configure a device. The tool shows all the properties and functions that the NI-SCOPE software package supports."

Yes I recall looking in the Driver Editor and not finding what I needed. Unfortunately, I am out of the office now and so will not be able to try this again till tomorrow. Thank you
