oscilloscope output through serial port

[karina]

Hi!
I'm using Tektronix TSD220 oscilloscope for recording Video and Audio
signals from DVD playback. I'm interested in calculating the Delta
between Audio and Video signals. I would like to connect the
oscilloscope to the PC and to record the oscilloscope output to a file
(of any kind). Is this thing possible? Which software is needed for
this aim? Which configurations?
THanks, Karin

You need the interface module that goes in the port on the back. I
don't think you can dump raw ADC data out that port, though - it is
intended for trace printouts.

You are right: There is no way to dump the raw ADC data. Even the
IEEE488 Module does not offer enough bandwith.
Update rate is approx. 30 waveforms/s, so you are far from realtime
application.
