hallo..can anyone tell how to code vb,to display signal from external device such like function generator..please

Witch Doctor

You are going to have to have some form of output from the signal generator. This will need to be converted into something that VB can understand like numbers or characters. It all depends on the output from the signal generator. You are going to have to figure what this is before you can even begin to think about coding.

Do you need to know how to read the external data, or how to display the external data? You don't say which.

You may get some ideas for display in the thread A Current Trendin the knowledge base

I would personally set up two separate processes.

Process 1, running as a standalone exe, would populate a database with the external data. Process 2 would retrieve and display the data that is being stored by process 1.

In this manner, you could have multiple clients displaying the data in different formats or time bases simultaneously.
