-====== Getting Started with the OpenScope MZ ====== 
-This document will walk you through the OpenScope MZ setup process. 
  
-<WRAP info> 
-**April 2017** \\ \\ 
-WaveForms Live and the OpenScope MZ are currently in 'beta' release which means things are still a little rough around the edges.  We're working on a couple final features and improving the user experience and documentation.  During this time we encourage users to share feedback and ask us questions in the [[https://forum.digilentinc.com/forum/30-waveforms-live-and-openscope-feedback/ | WaveForms Live and OpenScope forums]].

-==== Setup ==== 
-  - Download and install the [[/reference/software/digilent-agent/start | Digilent Agent]]. \\ \\ The Digilent Agent is a service that runs in the system tray on Windows, Mac, or Linux and enables WaveForms Live to communicate with Digilent hardware. The Digilent Agent makes it easy to update the OpenScope MZ's firmware, configure Wifi and calibrate the instruments. \\ \\ 
-  - Connect the OpenScope MZ to the computer via USB. \\ \\ 
-  - Right click the Digilent Agent in the system tray and click **Launch WaveForms Live**. \\ \\ This will launch waveformslive.com if you have internet access or a locally hosted version of WaveForms Live if not. \\ \\ 
-  - Add the Digilent Agent and OpenScope MZ to WaveForms Live. \\ \\ 
-    * Click **Add A Device**. \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-1.png?nolink |}} \\ 
-    * Choose **Agent**. \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-2.png?nolink |}} \\  
-    * Enter the **hostname or IP address** of the device where the Agent is running and click **Add Device**. \\ Typically the default value "http://localhost:42135" is correct for an agent running on the local machine.  \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-3.png?nolink |}} \\ \\ 
-    * Select the COM port associated with the OpenScope MZ from the drop down. \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-4.png?nolink |}} \\  
-    * Click **Update Firmware** and follow the instructions to update the firmware on the OpenScope MZ. \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-5.png?nolink |}} \\  
-    * Click **Calibrate** and follow the instructions to calibrate the OpenScope MZ.  \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-7.png?nolink |}} \\  
-    * For more information on device configuration see the [[/reference/software/waveforms-live/reference-manual | WaveForms Live reference manual]]. \\ \\ 
-    * Click **Done**. \\ \\ 
-  - Click the new **device card** to navigate to the instrument panel for the OpenScope MZ.  \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-8.png?nolink |}} \\

-==== First Measurement (LoopBack) ==== 
- 
-  - Connect the solid orange wire (Osc Ch 1) to solid yellow wire (AWG Ch 1). 
-  - Click the power button to turn on the WaveGen.   \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-9.png?nolink |}} \\  
-  - Click Single to acquire a single buffer of data.  \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-10.png?nolink |}} \\  
-  - The data is displayed on the chart.   \\ \\ {{ :reference:instrumentation:openscope-mz:openscope-mz-getting-started-11.png?nolink |}} \\
