LabVIEW driver
Hi all
I am looking for a driver this instrument. I think someone else was looking for the same driver a couple of years back. I am hoping someone has developed their own and willing to share. As of today i didnt find it in the NI drivers library.
Thanks
Hi Charles,
Unfortunately there no exists a driver for this device. However, I noticed that this device has an RS-232 interface and I wouldn’t be so difficult to communicate with this device with the proper documentation from the vendor (the commands).
You can use one of the many examples from the community to send and receive data to/from the device. You just will need see if in the user manual of the device is some information about the configuration or commands of the device.
Regards,
MCOTO

Where can i find a Labview driver for the "8990a PEAK POWER ANALYZER" it's not on NI's site.
where can i find a Labview driver for the "8990a PEAK POWER ANALYZER" it's not on NI's site.
if there is no driver maybe you can tell me the closest instrument that comes to this one from the list at,
http://search.ni.com/query.html?lk=1&col=alldocs&nh=500&rf=3&ql=&pw=595&qp=%2BContentType%3AInstrumentDriver+%2BIDNetManufacturer%3A%22Hewlett-Packard%22&qt=peak+power+analyzer&layout=IDNet
so i could modify and use the driverHello,
It looks like Agilent/HP makes the 8990A, but I was not able to find a driver for it that we or Agilent has written for this device.
Since I am not familiar with the 8990A, I cannot recommend which drivers might be similar, but you are pointed in the right direction. Agilent themselves might know more about which models use similar command sets so that you can modify a driver easily.
Hope this helps.

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. -

RS232 Labview driver for SR830 lockin Amplifier
Hi,
I want to install Labview driver for Stanford Research SR830 lockin amplifier for RS232 port. NI has drivers for GPIB but I could not find any for RS 232 comm port.
Please let me know how can I find driver for RS232 port.
Regards,
NitinDear Jason S,
I also want to communicate with sr 830 with the RS232 interface. You said I had to rewrite the whole thing. What does that really mean? Rewrite the driver? If so, what language will it be?
JasonS' wrote:
Hello Nitshu-
As you mentioned, this driver only supports GPIB, and not RS-232. This driver was originally created in 1994, so it was not created using VISA. This means that to convert this driver you would need to essentially rewrite the entire thing. There are not currently any plans to update this driver to support RS-232, but you could easily communicate with it by adding a GPIB Interface to your system.
Let us know if you have any specific questions we can help answer.

Thank you for answering my question -
Can Labview 7.0 control an instrument without the labview driver?
hellow,i have an instrument which do not have the labview driver,its output signal is RS232,so can i use labview7.0 to read the signal? thanks!
You sure can. There is a popular program to check on serial hardware, the loopback.vi. It sends out a signal and reads in a signal. You can modify the vi to send a signal to whatever you need to or receive a signal from whatever you want to. So if you just have an output signal to read in you can modify it to just read in that output signal into a graph or anything you'd like. So you could just get rid of "serial port write.vi" or that entire sequence if you wanted to. I hope that helps.

Download HP34970A labview driver
Hello,
When I download Agilent 34970A labview driver and extracted it in my C:\TEMP folder, I couldn't open the labview example; it keeps LOADING and SEARCHING the file.
There is a message when I open the labview library '[warning: has been deleted, renamed or removed on dis]" it appears every single file.
Please help.
KenYes it needs to be in labview\instr.lib folder.

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!

Hi,
I'm using Crossbow wireless moduel with NI Labview 8.2. My system is,
1. Laptop: Crossbow MIB 520 is connected by COM port (virtual COM port, actually it is connected by USB), and Crossbow MICAz is attached to receive signals. The received signals are processed with NI Labview driver from http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=1FB66B354ED149C7E0440003BA230E....
2. Node #1: Corssbow MDA 320 is used for collecting signal from a pressure sensor, and Crossbow MICAz is attached for sending signals.
I want to sample the pressure signals about 100Hz. So I made programs which are installed in MICAz for each node. I check the signals with XSniffer program which is provided Crossbow, it just shows the received signals. So I can see the 100Hz signal with it.
Since the Baud rate for XSniffer is 115200, I changed the Baud rate in the NI Labview dirver which was 57600 to 115200. The Baud rate that I changed is in the zip file, Crossbow XMesh WSN\Private\WSN Connect to Gateway.vi. (Before I change the Baud rate, I could not see the signals in Labview.) However, Labview shows only about 10Hz signal.
Because another program, XSniffer with same system shows 100Hz signal, but Labview dirver does not. So I guess that there might be limitation about accepting data in Labview driver. So my question is,
Are there any sampling limitations for accepting data in NI Labview driver for Crossbow? If so, how can I fix it?

An instrument driver is a collection of functions that implement the commands necessary to perform the instrument�s operations. In short, someone read the instrument user manual and implemented some of the functionality in a program for the end user. Instrument drivers are not necessary to use your instrument. They are merely time savers to help you develop your project so you do not need to study the manual before writing a program.
There are example VI's in LV on Instrument Connectivity. If you go to the Help menu >> Examples.. >> I/O, you will see a couple and Examples.. >> Fundamentals for File and String manipulation. I would suggest tweaking them to suit your application. Also the specific command that your instrument responds to can be found from it's manual.
Some useful resources for your application are

Looking for labview driver to control Tennesy Chamber
Looking for Labview driver to control Tennesy Jr Environmental Chamber
(Watlow series 942 controller) LV6.0
Email [email protected] if you can help out.
Thanks,
David.The first place to look for stuff like this is the vendor's web page--in this case www.watlow.com. How did I know this? I guessed. You can typically guess 90% of company websites...
In a couple minutes I was able to find your controller and a document on how to communicate with it. If you email me I can send it to you (it's too big to post...).
Next, reading the document (which by the way contains a good basic primer on serial communications)I saw that one of the protocols you can use for communicating with the 942 is Modbus RTU. I can also send you a set of modbus drivers.
Hope this helps in thermal testing your chips...
