How do I use VISA to perform GET (Group Execute Trigger) to three DMMs?

Hi,
My systems have about 4 GPIB instruments connecting to my computer via Agilent GPIB-USB Interface card.  I have to use VISA to communicate with the interface and instrument.  I wish I can use NI488,.2 but it does not seem to work with Agilent card.  In NI488.2, I could easily send a command such as X? (to read value from Agilent 3458A) to 3 DMMS at once using sendlist module.  However, I do not know how to do similar parallel poll in VISA.  Can anyone help?  There are three FLUKE8505A on the system.  My goal is to read the three measured values triggered  simultaneously on these three FLUKE DMMs. 
Sincerely yours,
Rose

Hi Rose,
The How Do I See My Agilent 82357A GPIB-USB Interface in MAX/LabVIEW? knowledgebase article explains how to use an Agilent USB-GPIB with NI-VISA. Using the NI-VISA driver will require you install the Agilent I/O Libraries 14.0 and uninstall the Agilent VISA driver.  Once you get your Agilent GPIB-USB device recognized in MAX, you should be able to control the instruments using LabVIEW.

  • I upgraded my imac hard drive to a 2tb drive. how do i use time machine to get my computer back to normal?

    i upgraded my imac hard drive to a 2tb drive. how do i use time machine to get my computer back to normal?

    Thank you. I followed the faq#14 (using setup wizard from the osx install disk). Everything went just as planned until I woke up this morning and noticed there was no progress on the "transferring documents" meter. It stopped about 1/4 of the way. I can hear the computer working and the bar is somewhat animated like it is advancing but it's not.
    Should I cancel and restart or should I wait it out? It already been about 13 hours since I started the process. Do you think it is my time machine or my iMac? Maybe the time machine file is corrupt or something.
    Anyway, any help is appreciated. Thanks.

  • How do I use Migration Assistant to get my Mail and Keychain settings from

    How do I use Migration Assistant to get my Mail and Keychain settings from my Power Mac G5 2.3Ghz? I just purchased a new 2.5 MacBook Pro which will be delivered tomorrow, and I want to to know how to transfer Mail and Keychain?
    Thank You in advance for your reading and replying.
    Kindest Regards,
    Sebastian

    Rather than using Migration Assistant, which can cause trouble with the PPC to Intel change, simply boot the G5 in FireWire target disk mode and manually transfer the following:
    /Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
    /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
    /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    You might want to look over Kappy's helpful guide for migrating, which covers the full process for a manual migration (including the above files).
    Hope this helps...

  • How can I use QuickTime SDK to get Compress format of Video stream?

    I can get uncompress video stream like this:
    QDerr = NewGWorldFromPtr( &m_hGWorld, k32BGRAPixelFormat, &rcMac,
    NULL, NULL, 0, (char*)m_pVideoBuffer,
    m_sAVFileInfo.sResInfo.ulWidth*4);
    then the m_pVideoBuffer is uncompress video stream. How can I use QuickTime SDK to get Compress format of Video stream? I could change "k32BGRAPixelFormat" to other format,use other API or something?
    Could someone have the method? Best Wishes!

    Firefox, I would make sure you update your Desktop to Firefox 14.0.1, as the version you are running is quite old and out of date.
    Then, do you have your Sync Recovery key, username and password? If you do, you can re-add Firefox Sync to your computer.

  • How do I use Display Dialog to get back a date?

    Can anyone tell me how to use Display Dialog to get back a date?
    I am using the following code that does not work. It does not accept anything.  And I have searched high and low for an answer to my question and found nothing.
    repeat
           display dialog "When should I remind you (date)?" default answer ""
           try
                 if the text returned of the result is not "" then
                        set the requested_text to the date returned of the result as date
                        exit repeat
                end if
           on error
               beep
    end try
    endrepeat
    display dialog requested_text
    The code is based on what I found in AppleScript 1-2-3 (page 300). It shows examples for getting text and numbers but not one for dates.
    For what it is worth, my goal is to create a script that will convert an email from Evernote into an iCal Reminder. To do so, I want to ask the user (myself) for the reminder's date and time. I am assuming I need to ask for each separately. I also assume that once I get the date and time for the reminder, it should be relatively straightforward to 'make' a 'todo' with an alarm.
    Thanks in advance.
    -David

    Hi David,
    Try this:
    repeat
        set theCurrentDate to current date
        display dialog "When should I remind you (date)?" default answer (date string of theCurrentDate & space & time string of theCurrentDate)
        set theText to text returned of result
        try
            if theText is not "" then
                set theDate to date theText -- a date object
                exit repeat
            end if
        on error
            beep
        end try
    end repeat
    display dialog (date string of theDate & space & time string of theDate)

  • How do I use VIs developed on LabView v8.2.1 with a system running LabView v7?

    Hi...I need to use VIs developed on v8.2.1 for a Network Analyzer on another system having v7.0. Is there any way to down-convert or save VIs for previous version 7.0? I checked the 'save with options' menu but could only find v8.0 in the list of previous versions. Thanks. 

    Hi Omkar,
    to save it for LV 7.0 you need LV 8.0 and as far as i know LV 7.1. With LV8.0 you can save it for LV7.1 and with 7.1 you can save it for 7.0. If you have only a few vi´s you can ask someone here in the forum if he can help you.

  • How do I use Adobe Edge to get faded header images on my website?

    Trying to use Adobe Edge to get faded header images on my website. Was referred to Adobe Edge because it is supposed to be easy for beginners. I was able to upload my images, but then there was no instruction/direction on what to do next. Everything I clicked just brought me somewhere else. I'm a novice who needs help with coding, as everytime I tried adding coding to my page, it messed it up. I would appreciate if someone can tell me what to do after I upload the images.

    Yes, Animate. Again, I uploaded the images, but then, I didn't see any directions on what to do next, as I would like fading header images for my website. I understand that it is supposed to generate the code for my website, which is where I need the most help.

  • How do I use CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree and NOT get a "temp_" for my top level?

    I have a report that I have created that uses uses groups and I wanted export a PDF using the CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree option. While that works, I get an ugly top level bookmark name that starts with "temp_" then followed by two GUIDs "temp_13fef8e3-30ec-4bc5-ba77-b55d23c95e8f {87823BCB-7789-407C-8A7F-5096BE07A83E}".
    So, how do I:
    1) Get rid of this top level so it matches the Crystal Viewer (which has multiple top level bookmarks)
    2) Put in a name of my own choosing as the top-level bookmark.
    <!break>
    Any help or suggestions would be appricated.
    Thanks,

  • How do I use XML to perform DML Operations against 8i DBs?

    Please point me in the direction to get started. I am not sure if I need XML DB (9i R2 only ?), XSQL, XDK or what.
    I would like to be able to deconstruct existing applications (mostly PL/SQL) into a series of XML docs that when 'pieced' together could behave as a set of transactions. Where I am heading is toward making existing apps Web Services enabled. I would like to be able to use existing tables in my schemas.
    What advice can you give me in terms of getting started and selecting the 'right' approach? I assume there are trade offs between 8i and 9i DBs.

    You may pass an XML Document as a parameter to a Java file that makes use of XSU classes like OracleXMLSave and there are methods available in OracleXMLSave like insertXML() method that takes care of the dml part.
    Go through the examples listed below.
    Program Listing 1 : This program will insert a record into the emp table. This program takes an xml file as an input , translates the content into an insert statement and inserts and commits the data into the database. An example of the xml file is also enclosed.
