Found driver for Agilent E3633A but it is for V6.0 LabWindows. Is it ok for V8.5.1?

I have a Agilent E3633A power supply that I am trying to communicate with on GPIB. I have a Agilent 82357B USB/GPIB that connects my PC to the power supply. I am having trouble talking to the power supply. I saw some posts on the subject and saw there is a driver for the E3633A. I downloaded it. The download page said this was for LabWindows V6.0. Will it be ok to install it for LabWindows V8.5?
I am also looking for some code examples that use the Agilent 82357B USB/GPIB to communicate with instruments. Have not used GPIB on LabWindows before so I am struggling a bit. Any suggestions are appreciated.
thanks in advance,
Don Pearce

The power supply driver is probably fine, especially if you have the source code with it.
If it is a VISA driver, you will need the version of VISA that is compatible with your interface. In this case, with your Agilent interface. I personally have no experience with that equipment as I have always used NI GPIB interfaces and NI-VISA to keep things simple.
You may need to contact Agilent technical support for the interface issues.

Dv9000 laptop dvd drive and webcam not found. drive initializes on boot but does not show up.

The DVD/CD-Rom drive will initialize and will read a CD when inserted but it does not show up in the BIOS or in Windows. It's a Lighscribe drive. The webcam was not found either. I recently reloaded this machine for a friend back to the factory setup. Installed all additional software and everything is working but the drive and the camera. Is there any way to actually test these devices for failure? Or is there a patch or a software package I may be missing? It's a dv9000 but it has dv9007 on the bottom. And an AMD processor. If anybody has any ideas I would greatly appreciate the help.

Spoiler (Highlight to read)
It does not show up in either one. The camera or the DVD drive. No X's or error Triangles. I guess they could have gone bad at the same time but that's not likely. It would be one heck of a coiencidence. I am wondering if there is an alternate chipset driver or patch. Maybe a controller driver? The system has dv9000 on the display and dv9700 on the model # tag. I believe 1 is Inter and the other NVidia. But the Factory image installed the NVidia drivers.

Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7: Where to get the ATI driver for Win XP

Hi,
I have bought Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7 and it was with Vista on from the beginning. I decided to upgrade (/downgrade) it to XP but there's problem with driver to graphic card (Radeon HD 2600 Series).
I can't find anywhere ati drivers (actually I found it on ati.amd.com site, but on this forum I read that Toshiba drivers are modified so that Radeon won't be overheating) and I'm wonderig if Vista ones will run on XP (I've downloaded all drivers but ati one)?
...and is it possible to downgrade my Vista to XP Pro through Miscrosoft site (or something like that) or do I have to reinstall it using my old copy (provided with old Toshiba)?
Ps.
Sory for my English
Ps2.
Is it so important to install drivers in proper order?

> When trying to download driver from Toshiba web I get message:
>"This software has not been officially tested and therefore must be at the users own risk."
>I agree, but still can't download it.
You have to switch the option to Accept!!! Then the button Download will be activated!!!
>I found driver on ati site, but read somewhere that for Toshiba notebooks drivers are modified so that >graphic card won't overheat. Is that true? Or original drivers (of ati group) are as good as Toshiba ones?
As mentioned in this forum, the original ATI or nVidia drivers are designed not for the notebook usage!!! The GPU drivers are designed for the graphic cards which are used in the desktop PCs!!! Such graphic cards are equipped with an own, big cooling module in order to prevent the hardware from overheating!!! The notebook GPUs dont support such huge cooling modules and therefore the drivers must control the performance and the temperature growth.

How install driver for Canon pixma iP 1200 printer?

I found in AUR driver for pixma iP 1500 (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … s=0&SeB=nd)
and install it.
And found driver for printer pixma iP 4200 http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … s=0&SeB=nd.
Do driver pixma iP 1500 good for my printer, Canon pixma iP 1200? Or maybe need install other driver?

Hi newlife4rich,
Before you go through the effort of reinstalling the drivers, I think this might be an issue on the pritner side. What error are you getting on the computer? Also, do you get any error codes on the printer as well like E 1, E 2, etc..?

Satellite A200-1YW - Need storage card driver for Windows 7

Hello.
I have problem with installation storage card driver on Windows 7. I can't find the appropriate driver for this model. Pls give me link to this driver.

Hi
I assume you mean the Flash Card reader on your notebook?
The Satellite A200-1YW belongs to the PSAE3 series I think and therefore you can get all drivers here:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
I have founded driver for Vista 32bit. If you use Windows 7 32bit you should try this driver. Normally it should work.

There must be a real solution to "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error installing"

"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error installing"
I've spent hours researching this error - Seems like many people have the same issue although there is no difinitive fix or known cause.
I'm hoping someone here has an answer.
Windows 7 Home Premium x64 OEM (HP)
This is not an upgraded Vista system.
It's not a specific driver related issue as it's the same response/effect be it graphics/chip set/usb/printer drivers.
Please dont suggest to flatten and re-install or run a repair install - It's not an option, I only have remote access to the unit
as it's currently in field use.
This is a machine specific issue - identical machine purchased at the same time and configured the same has no issue.
So the story.
User has been fine for weeks - no hardware of software changes except Windows Updates.
A Camera/USB connection that was working no longer does.
Tried in all USB ports
Plug in - windows announces found new hardware, tries to install drivers then fails
with "Windows found software for your device but encountered an error installing ...."
Device manager finds and identifies device although it is in the 'Unknown Device" category.
Manually updating drivers via search/internet or point directly at a driver has exactly the same effect.
Thinking this was just the camera drivers - I researched and downloaded new drivers from camera manufacturers sites
Fuji and Canon.
Same effect.
Deleted/uninstalled drivers completely, deleted/uninstalled all USB root hub and USB devices (hidden and visible)
SFC /Scannow finds no error
Cold boot finds USB and chipset(?) devices on boot attempts to reinstall then we get
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error installing"
So now I have no usb devices at all - memory stick/card reader/printer...... nada.
in fact if I try to update any device driver I get the same message generated.
Restore point does not help either.
After much trawling I found reference to a permisions issue and stale driver cache data.
(This is using an administrator account - not user with admin permissions?)
I'm willing to try anything at this time
I deleted the infcache.1 and other .dat files under c:\windows\system32\driverstore
Copied the usb .inf and .pnf from the appropriate FileRepository directory into c:\windows\inf
Uninstalled all the usb/unkown devices from device manager again.
Rebooted
Takes a little longer to boot as I take it it's rebuilding the driver cache then
a very short hurrah!!!
I can now use usb memory card and pen drives - no issue
Plug in a camera or printer...
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error installing"
Several attempt at this trying different driver versions.
It should not be vendor specific, the other field machine that works is using Microsoft drivers for these devices.
I even copied the drivers from one machine to the other - repeated everything above...
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error installing"
And then the nail in my sanity
Try windows update....
Reboot
"Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error installing"
but this time its different.
The device it thinks it cannot install is the generic MTP-PTP drivers (Photo Transfer Protocol -so am I getting somewhere)
so it still finds but cannot install.
The cameras are always found but appear as 'unknown devices' and cannot be accessed
Uninstall all USB/unkown again - reboot..
Same message and this time I've lost all the USB again.
Restore point to before Win Update gets me USB back again although I still have no cameras - so theres an update issue as well.
This has to be tied down to a file access/ registry problem although I'm loath to go cutting about without some guidance.
I'm no great believer in 'registry cleaners' unless anyone can point to a definitive/no ad's/sales version that really works.
As I said above, flattening/rebuild at this time is not an option - the user is not best pleased and I'm completley stumped.
If anyone has experienced(manu of you have) and fixed(still to find one) this issue please let me know how as soon as possible.
Chris

I know I am replying to an old thread - but I have the answer and resolved this error, and since this message comes up first in search results, and part of my answer came from this thread, I wanted to help someone else as this took an extra
12 hours and a lot of technical insight to resolve. See below for detailed explanation that others ask for above.
My original issue was that iTunes didnt reinstall. generating this error that said I am trying to access an unavailable network resource and to browse to find itunes64setup (again). This may partly have been due to me deleting old install version folders.
Research led me to completely uninstall apple products and reinstall per their instruction and fixed the issue with iTunes. see
Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 - Apple Support
The SAME error I had while updating itunes recurred while uninstalling it from my Windows 7 SP1 system...so I went to microsoft Fixit and attempted to correct and it properly uninstalled iTunes for me, which allowed the reinstall.
What didnt work was my USB web root/ root hub, which partly involved my older system and USB 1.0, and the delete/reinstall existing drivers with the c:\windows\winsxs folder as source of drivers (thank you Magon Liu!!!) which I had to figure out what/why
and how.
Then I had an intel chipset issue...my new Iphone wasn't recognizing in plug and play, and there was an error with installing the device drivers for my new iphone 6. Manual applications didn't work, even though a generic device showed in control panel -
device manager with a yellow !
Per above blog answer - I tried to remove and reinstall my USB controller or update the drivers (I have an Alienware M15 laptop - a few years old.) I discovered that the USB host controller - an Intel(R) 5 Series / 3400 Series Chipset family USB Enhanced
Host controller - (port) was not covered by current Intel chipset programs which are Series 6 and later, but did have an update (8/20/2009 v9.1.1.1020) that supported USB 2.0 (and therefore 3.0 backwards compatibility which as an issue with my new iPhone
and some USB thumb drives.) To find this I had to look at the Support - Downloads and Drivers - browse for drivers and somewhere found an option to look for older no longer supported drivers. I found infinst_autol.exe for my case.
Once downloaded I tried to install and failed. Found the log in C:\Intel\Logs and contains:
[InstallDev]
          [Device]
            Driver = C:\Users\DAVIDS~1\AppData\Local\Temp\IPMx7\WIN7\ibexusb.inf

            Installed INF =

            Using RegDeleteKeyEx
!!!         ERROR 0xE0000246: DriverPackageInstall generated an unexpected error
HERE'S THE ADDED EXPLANATION TO BRIAN'S POST THAT EXPLAINS THE SECURITY ISSUE:
This turned out to be an error for two reasons. First, after manually running the command in an "run as administrator" window (same error result), thinking it related to my anti-virus (turned that off/disabled firewall and A/V), and from this thread
granting my user administrative rights to files in an install folder and trying to reinstall inf files and drivers from C:\Windows\winsxs vs my copied infinst_autol.exe expansion (as found from log in C:\Users\David Samuels\AppData\Local\Temp\IPMx7\WIN7 folder).....that
there was an easier solution as the reason this error actually happens is a permissions problem.
To access the proper windows system folders - you have to be the TrustedInstaller service - not just in the administrator group...or you have to be the actual "Administrator" account. To become actual administrator on
your own laptop, Open a command window "run CMD.exe as administrator", then execute command
> net user administrator /active:yes
This creates a local PC Administrator account with no password. Coincidentally it has proper permissions to windows directories for installing drivers. Log in as this user, go to device manager and update the USB hub and any other drivers. if updating the
USB root - it doesn't replace it right away as the system cant disable the currently resident in memory "running" driver - you have to update, then restart the system, log in as administrator and repeat at the next lower layer that has issues.
Once completed - log in as yourself again and disable the administrator account in a command window with > net user administrator /active:no
This in my case enabled all my USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices on my originally only USB 1.0 laptop and everything else works properly again - I hope this helps many of you to resolve your own issues that were difficult to find and resolve and that got as far as
this thread. Good luck!

I have Agilent 8166A(Lightwave Multichannel Sys. I did not find GPIB drive for this Equipment.I also search this driver in the web but I still did not find them. Please help me and tell me how to download those drivers

Thank you very much !!!
Michael

The Agilent 8163, 8164 and 8166 uses the same driver and they come with the mainframe. If you didn't get the driver with the mainframe, call Agilent's T&M support and ask them to email it to you.
FYI, there is a bug in the LabVIEW driver that Agilent supplied.
I hope that helps. Regards,

Is there any LabVIEW driver for the Agilent 53147A counter/power meter?

I am trying to find a LabVIEW driver for the Agilent 53147A counter/power meter, but I cannot find it. Is there any?

NI does not have a driver and a quick check with Agilent shows that they don't have a driver either.
You can go to http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/ and request a driver. You will also find links on how to create your own driver. Your other option is to use the Instrument I/O Assistant.
p.s. In the future, you should use the Instrument control board for posting questions. this board is for NI counter/timer products.

My PC sign: driver for keyboard filter not found. what can i do?

my PC sign: driver for keyboard filter not found. what can i do?

Hi:
I don't think it is a big deal but let's see if we can find a driver for it.
Please click on the missing keyboard filter in the device manager. Then click on the details tab. In the Properties drop down list, select the second item (Hardware ID's).
Post the top string of characters you see in the window.
That will give me more information to go on.

Instrument driver for Agilent E5061A network analyzer

Is there a instrument driver for the Agilent E5061A network analyzer ? I couldn't find one neither on NIs Instrument Driver Network nor on Agilents site.
We are using Labwindows/CVI as development system.

Yes we are talking about the same driver, but i dont know why hp871x.c file was removed. However, hp871x.h and hp871x.fp are included.
Anyhow, look this comment into hp871x.cpp file:
In addition, if WIN32 is defined, _CVI_ may also be defined to indicate that the program is being compiled under LabWindows CVI.....
I guess it is not so hard to modify this source code (from hp871x.cpp to hp871x.c). Sorry for disturb you!!!

Labview driver for agilent 8164A tunable laser

I'm working on a project that involves setting up our Agilent 8164A lightwave measurement system in labview. I cannot locate the driver software on the NI website. Please let me know where I can download the driver for this equipment. Thanks.

Actually we don't have a driver for that instrument in our website, so that means that we also don't have it in the CD. So you may want to check the Agilent's website, or as a matter of surprise, I found in our database one document that was talking about some past issue and it involved the 8166 instrument, so the author attached the driver for this instrument so we can reproduce what he found out, so I'm attaching this file here which is the file the previous Sr. mention, "hp816x", I installed it in my computer and run it and it is an Agilent made driver, so you can use this one or try to contact the Agilent people. Also you may request a LabVIEW driver been made for this instrument, please see the details at: O
ther Driver's Resources from our download site.
Good luck!

Looking for a serial driver for an agilent 4395A to work with labview

Can only find one for gpib I have no interface for gpib on my PC but i do have a rs232/gpib converter and was wondering if I could get a serial driver for the agilent 4395A for this.
Thanks

I've only used the RS232/GPIB converter to go from a GPIB bus to a serial instrument so I can't speak for going the other direction but I would give it a try. However, you have big problems with the driver if its the same one I just downloaded from NI. It's not really what I would call a driver at all but an application program meant to be used stand alone. There is no breakout of instrument functions into subVIs and none of the controls or indicators are on the connector so you can't even use the high level app as a subVI without a lot of work. It is a contributed driver but I'm surprised NI accepted it because it doesn't follow any of the published rules for an instrument driver. It's not even a good example of program design, imho. There is a VISA dr
iver available from Agilent here and I would try that instead. To use a VISA driver with a serial port, you just specify the VISA resource name for that port instead of the GPIB resource name. For example, a GPIB resource name of an instrument with an address of 5 would be "GPIB::5::INSTR". To communicate to your instrument over com port 1, the VISA resource name is "ASRL1::INSTR". If the instrument has a serial port in addition to the GPIB, you could also try skipping the converter. Some VISA drivers work fine either way.

Instrument driver for agilent 8960 to run CDMA tests

Hi, just wonder if there is an instrument driver for agilent 8960 to run CDMA tests? I know 8960 has E1963 and E1968 driver, but 1963 is designed for W-CDMA and 1968 is for GSM/GPRS/EGPRS. So is there a driver designed for CDMA mode? Thanks a lot!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Unfortunately, it does not appear that there currently is one. When I search the Instrument Driver Network I only find the two drivers that you pointed out.
