The [`SiglentSDS1000XE`](https://dev.nominal.io/instro/ref/instruments/instro.scope.drivers.siglent_sds1000x_e.SiglentSDS1000XE.md#instro.scope.drivers.siglent_sds1000x_e.SiglentSDS1000XE "instro.scope.drivers.siglent_sds1000x_e.SiglentSDS1000XE") provides a driver that can be used to instantiate an [InstroScope](https://dev.nominal.io/instro/scope.md).

## Creating an [`InstroScope`](https://dev.nominal.io/instro/scope.md) with [`SiglentSDS1000XE`](https://dev.nominal.io/instro/ref/instruments/instro.scope.drivers.siglent_sds1000x_e.SiglentSDS1000XE.md#instro.scope.drivers.siglent_sds1000x_e.SiglentSDS1000XE "instro.scope.drivers.siglent_sds1000x_e.SiglentSDS1000XE")

```python
from instro.scope.drivers import SiglentSDS1000XE
from instro.scope import InstroScope

scope = InstroScope(
    name="myScope",
    driver=SiglentSDS1000XE("<visa_resource>"),
    num_channels=4,
)
```
