ScopeSnap Manual

ScopeSnap is a macOS 1 utility purpose-built for acquiring screen captures from LAN-connected digital oscilloscopes. Engineered with support for the Rigol 1000Z Series, especially the DS1054Z, ScopeSnap enables fast, direct image capture over Ethernet using SCPI commands and standard LXI protocols.

This tool is ideal for users who require efficient documentation, signal verification, or remote capture capabilities in lab or production environments.

Features:

• Supports screen capture from LXI-compliant instruments via LAN

• Tested with Rigol DS1054Z (1000Z Series); likely compatible with other SCPI-capable scopes

• Uses TCP/IP control to query and download PNG image data from scope display buffer

• Clean macOS-native interface for streamlined operation

• Ideal for waveform documentation, test automation, and remote analysis

• Saves images locally for further processing or archiving

ScopeSnap is designed to remove friction from data acquisition workflows involving oscilloscopes. It complements any test bench or automated measurement setup where screen image capture is required without manual USB export or onboard file management.
