How to obtain data (voltage) from a Signal Generator connected through USB port and plot voltage vs. time
显示 更早的评论
Hello Everyone, Hope you are all fine. I am facing some problem with my assignment. The assignment is to connect a Signal Generator to pc through* USB* port and read data from it. Then I have to write a program in MATLAB that uses the data to plot a voltage vs. time graph. The program should be real-time. That is if I change the amplitude of signal the plot will change immediately. Your help is much appreciated. Thank You.

put some details about the problem. it would be easier to help if you explain your problem

Using USB as your data interface is not compatible with real-time work or changing the plot "immediately". USB inherently works with packets (clumps) of data and MATLAB cannot read from a USB serial interface with less than a 40 millisecond delay after the data is generated, because of the way that USB was designed.

See the documentation for serial()
Also you might find that the Instrument Control Toolbox makes it easier to talk to the signal generator.

You will find communicating with the signal generator easier once you have located the referejce documentation for that particular model of signal generator, what-ever it is.
