I am having problems remotely acquiring 100,000 samples with my MSO4104 using LabVIEW. When I set the record length to 100k, I only receivee 10k samples and I am not sure why this is happening.

I'm not a LabVIEW expert but I'm well practiced with the MSO4104 commands.

If you aren't getting back all the data you expect, the first thing I would check is the DATA:STOP setting. Both DATA:START and DATA:STOP values influence how many samples are returned during a CURVE? query.

I typically use Python. I demonstrate a robust order of operations with this example https://github.com/tektronix/Programmatic-Control-Examples/blob/master/Examples/Oscilloscopes/MidrangeScopes/src/SimplePlotExample/mdo_simple_plot.py. Curve setup starts on line 44.
