N6705B connectivity via GPIB interface in UNIX

Hi
i had an N6705B device my requirement is like below
I need to control this device via an GPIB interface in linux PC.
for the above i am using an GPIB to GPIB cable and connected the N6705B and amy linux device.
Now i have to connect/login in to the N6705B device and do the settings like setting voltage for the DUT (IC chip) and collect measurement for various test scenarios of DUT.
For example i have to set the input voltage as 3.7v to my test device(which is an wifi device) and connect it to an access point(connection will be done manaully) so during the connection stage i have to measure the current consumed by the device (taken across power amplifer).
I think there are SCPI commands whcih i notice in the AGilent 14585 control software which do the same (the software support is there in windows 7 via an GUI), is there any posibility now this commands i can send to the agilent N6705B device by logging into it from a linux PC.
Thanks

Connect via P2 Interface to WSA S160 for initial set-up

Currently have deployed WSA with the following interfaces:
1/ Management : 1.1.2.2/24
2/ P1 : 10.10.20.14/24 (inside DMZ interface for secure network)
3/ P2: 8.8.8.136/28 (Public DMZ interface)
Issue:
I can not reach Management interface on segment at this time to run set-up wizard for configuring the WSA.
I can reach and talk to P2 interface via ASA 5540 which controls all inbound traffic to WSA.
How can I remotely reach WSA via P2 to run setup wizard via GUI for WsA set-up?
I know I must use http://IP_ADS:8080/8443 but how can I get there via public IP Address or proxy.
Note: I have a proxy 5.5.5.5 which I have built acl on 5540 to allow tcp 8080/8443 to 8.8.8.136.

Setup wizard can only be access through the management interface(M1). At this moment the only choice will be to connect via console.
You may also connect directly to the unit's COM port using a null modem cable (9-pin serial) in order to establish a command line interface (CLI) session. This is particularly useful during the initial configuration process of the device. In order to proceed, you will need the following:
9-pin female-to-female serial cable (null modem)
Serial console client (such as HyperTerminal or PuTTY)
Please use the following procedure as a guide:
Connect your laptop (or other client device) to the serial port on the back of the unit using a standard 9-pin null modem cable.
Launch your preferred serial console client. Specify the appropriate COM port to use on your local machine, and use the following settings for the connection:
Bits per second: 9600
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: Hardware (RTS/CTS, DSR/DTR)
Once the session has been opened, you may need to press Enter to trigger output. At this time, you should see a login prompt akin to what would be seen in a Telnet- or SSH-based CLI session.
Log in using your appropriate credentials.

Connection via TAPI Interface

Hi,
Where could find the document <b>SAPphone Server 2.0 Usage of TAPI 2.1.</b>
I read about this in the document SAPphone - Telephony in SAP Systems, Interface Description but when I search the document I never can find it.
Best regards,
Ana Jimena Rodas.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your help, I read about its company; you have all the complete solution and the Telephony Connector you are really good !!!
TAPI interfacing
I have the document SAPphone Telephony in SAP Systems - Version 5.11A9; and in page 17/87 it says The SAPphone Server supports TAPI Version 2.0 and later. A detailed description of the SAPphone server is contained in the document ´SAPphone Server 2.0 Usage of TAPI 2.1´and then I am looking this document.
What SAP product/release are you working with?
The actual characteristic of my system are:
- SAPphone RFC interface: 5.11ASP (Local architecture, Identification by host name of computer)
- SAPphone Server 2.5.9
- SAP CRM 3.0
- SAPGUI 6.40
- Microsoft TAPI 2.0
Is this for a small, medium, or large call center?
Im using Avaya IPOffice 403 with TAPI 2.0 in my contact center; it is like a medium contact center.
Paul, Could you help me with this question:
If I want to handle a call from SAP IC (WinClient or WebClient ), I could need something like a CTI connector between SAP Interaction Center and Avaya Phone Manager. Something different from the SAP Phone, for instance?
Best regards,
Ana Jimena Rodas.

HELP! (how to acquire two channels via gpib?)

Hi,
I have the following problem:
I have a LeCroy 4 channel OS connected via GPIB to my PC.
I need to acquire 100ms of data from two channels simultaneously, triggering
the event with a third channel.
I have installed the Labview-IVI drivers for my OS, but looking at the
application's example I find only a one-channel acquisition example, and I
don't know how to change them in order to do a two-channel acquisition.
(I' m able only to make sequential acquisitions....).
How can I syncronize the read waveform blocks?
Please help me,
Many thanks
Andrew

Since you have an IVI driver for the scope, you can use the IVI Oscilloscope class driver. Do all of the initialization and configuration for acquisition, channel, and trigger (under the configuration palette). Under the measurement palette, you can do an IVI Scope Read Waveform for one channel, and then do a an IVI Scope Fetch Waveform. The read initiates an acquisition and the fetch returns a waveform for any other enabled channel without doing another acquisition. Both the read and fetch return an initial x relative to the trigger and x increment in seconds so its easy to get the data you need from the waveform arrays. Good luck.

Hi neilchuang,
A read timeout error is usually caused by an error on the command string sent.
The first thing I would check is if the instrument requires a termination character at the end of each message (such as linefeed). I noticed in the Spy capture that the commands do not have a termination character attached. This means that the instruments never recognized that you completed the query command, it doesn't execute the requested action and as a consequence of that it doesn't have any data to return.
One question: Is the instrument detected by MAX when you scan for instruments?. If yes then you can assume that the GPIB software and hardware are properly installed. The scan for instruments sends the *IDN? (terminated by a linefeed). You can right-cli
ck on the instrument entry in MAX and select "Communicate with instrument". Notice that at the end of the command the linefeed is included (\n).
Double check with the instrument manual if the commands sent are the right ones.
Finally, there is an instrument driver available in the idnet library: www.ni.com/idnet. Search for 3631. Since you are working in C you can use the LabWindows/CVI Plug and Play driver. Even if you decide not to use the instrument driver, you can still use it as an excellent reference on how to program with the instrument.
Hope this helps!.

I am doing one Labview project. so my project is about design a interface in labview which one collect the data from keithley 2400 via GPIB connection.

i am doing one Labview project. so my project is about design a interface in labview which one collect the data from keithley 2400 via GPIB connection. any suggestion please

Your first task should be to just be able to send commands to the instrument. Do as Dennis suggested and download the drivers for the instrument and get familiar with them. Build up small VIs that do little tasks with those drivers so you can get used to them. Then worry about your main interface.

Connecting PCs via GPIB in Labview

Is there a way to connect two PCs via GPIB, both running a Labview program? I just want to excange text files between them. The GPIB cards are PCMCIA-GPIB cards from NI.

You can, but you might not enjoy it.
I don't have the specifics for your GPIB cards, so I don't know how to do it for them, but in a previous job we put one of the GPIB cards in a non-System Controller mode. Then we could make it look like an instrument. Sorry I can't provide more details as it has proprietary code in it. But hopefully it gives you a place to start.

GPIB instruments connected through Agilent USB/GPIB Interface can bee seen in MAX but can't communicate in labview

I have an Agilent 82357B USB/GPIB Interface connected to my computer.
Attached to that, I have two lock-in amplifiers (an SR830, and an SR
850). I would like to be able to communicate with them through GPIB.
I have downloaded and installed the software for the Agilent device
(Agilent IO Control), and I can see the interface and the two devices
in that software. Here's what is configured in this software, that I
can see:
The VISA interface ID is GPIB0, and its address is 0
The VISA addresses of the devices are GPIB0::4::INSTR and GPIB::12::INSTR, and the GPIB addresses are 4 and 12
In Measerment and Automation Explorer (MAX), I made sure that the
Passport for Tulip box was checked. Once it was, I could see the
devices in the Configuration window under Devices and Interfaces ->
Miscellaneous VISA Resources. There, I see GPIB0::INTFC, GPIB0::4::INSTR and GPIB::12::INSTR.
I can right click on either of the instruments, and "Open VISA Test
Panel" where I am successfully able to send commands and read from both
devices.
HOWEVER, when I am running an actual LabView program, I am unable to communicate with the devices.
For example, when I try to communicate to the devices through VISA,
using the 'Basic Serial Write and Read.vi' (while VISA Resource Name is
GPIB0::12::INSTR), I get an error:
Error -1073807331 occurred at Property Node (arg 2) in VISA Configure Serial Port (Instr).vi->Basic Serial Write and Read.vi
Possible reason(s):
VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF001D) The specified attribute is not defined or supported by the referenced resource.
When trying to communicate with them through GPIB (which is what I want
to do in the end), using 'GPIB.vi' I also get an error. Here, GPIB
address is 12, and I am just trying to give it the command *IDN?
GPIB Write returned error code:
EDVR: Error connecting to driver or device
What's going on?

You can use VISA Write and VISA Read. You just can't use the example called Basic Serial Write and Read because that is specifically for the RS-232 port. The GPIB-VISA is one of the shipping examples. Start the example finder and go to the search tab. Search for VISA.
Again, no you cannot use the GPIB functions with a non-NI controller. The low level functions for an NI board and an Agilent one are completely different. You can rewrite the driver to use VISA or you can rewrite it to use the low level functions that Agilent provides. You use the Call Library Function Node, I believe to access their GPIB driver.
I hate to say it but the $20 difference between the Agilent and the NI controller does not seem like much of a saving.

Gilson 307 pump which are connected via a system interface module 506C

hello,
I have a master's thesis received the task to control gilson pumps.
Unfortunately I have no experience with LabView.
It is generally possible to steer the pump? I read a lot and it will describe this is not possible. But I have a compoliertes Pogramm and unfortunately can not get the source code and the driver. There you can control the pumps.
Can one of you help. I would be very grateful.
hardware:
three Gilson 307 which are connected via a system interface module 506C. The interface module is connected via an RS232 connection.
LabView 2012
Thank you very much in advance and best regards
Michael

Thanks for the extra comments GerdW.
Perhaps there is someone who wants to help me, in the manual are not the commands available. Even the technicians of Gilson I could not tell from his documentation of the command sets.
many greetings
Michael

Populating list with connected GPIB interfaces

I'm working on the setup section of an APP in Delphi5.0 using the GPIB-32.DLL and am a little baffled. Ni supplied this little gizmo that searches for GPIB interfaces (not devices). I would like to emulate this functionality for my application in a setup wizard sort of way so the end user can simply select from a list of 'detected' interfaces. In looking at the DLL calls they all seem to require previous knowledge of the device location. So I'm wondering if there is a set range of possible Primary and Secondary addresses I can use to just loop through searching for an interface. I'm assuming here that anything that wouldn't toss a failure when sent a Pri/Sec Address would be a set of valid device ports. On that note...
are there some specific commands to issue that will return a string telling me exactly what it found on that Pri/Sec address?
Thanks!
CT

Ok.. I made some progress. Using SendIFC and ibfind, etc, watching NiSpy I have determined this is coming back as an Integer and other Ni applications use the Init_DA_Brds to obtain a translation of the integer to descriptive title. However I don't have access to that and the only reference I found of the device list codes is from 1999 which does not include some of the newest hardware including the USB based devices.
Is there a newer list of product codes available?

Force an application to connect via wi-fi interface

I'm looking into something for a family member but came up short of answers. Their computer is connected to one network via Ethernet and another via Wi-Fi. Ethernet has top priority in "system preferences > network > set service order" This is supposed to stay this way.
Is it possible (via third party apps or terminal commands if need be) to force specific applications to connect via wi-fi and ignore Ethernet?

Me too, can you tell me why ?

Any one having the knowledge of communicating Agilent 81250A via GPIB

any one had done interface b/w Agilent 81250A via GPIB

If anyone can provide me driver, it will be great help for me.
Anyone having some important document used for GPIB communication with Agilent 81250A please provide me.
thanks,

What do you have it connected to? Doesn't the optical head you are refering to require an actual instrument like the 8153?

How do I print from wifi-connected MacBook Pro to printer connected via USB to Win7 PC?

This is really frustrating, and I did not think that anything could be this difficult on a Mac. I have a Windows 7 Home Premium desktop PC connected via ethernet cable to wireless router, and a printer connected to the PC via USB. I recently bought my first ever Mac - a MacBook Pro, which is connected via wifi through the same router. All I want to do is to print files from the MacBook Pro on the printer connected to the PC. I have spent a LOT of time searching all over the web. Have tried some 2 or 3 different methods but none of them work for me, e.g. I shared the printer on the Win7 desktop and then added the printer on the MBP with the IP option with LPD/LPR Protocol, after enabling LPD Print Service on the PC. The printer gets added but when I give the command to print from the Mac, the print job shows up on the printer queue but the "Printing" soon changes to "Error Printing" (or something like that) and nothing gets printed. Then, I have to switch off the printer, remove the print job from the queue and switch on the printer again to get it out of the error state.
I also tried setting up the printer on the MBP using CUPS Admin interface, i.e. localhost:631. Again, printer gets added but document does not print. The third way I tried to add the printer was using the Windows option in the Add Printer dialog, and typing in an smb: URL but no luck with that, either.
Please, can anyone help me? This is driving me crazy
Oh, and the devices are:
1) Windows 7 Home Premium Desktop PC
2) MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion
3) HP Deskjet F2110 printer
Thanks...

First Install Bonjour for Windows on your Windows machine. This will allow the printer to be discovered.
