86100 communication

[kmo]

Hi

I have an Infiniium DCA Agilent 86100C oscilloscope.

The problem is that I coundt find the normal visa drivers for this instrument, can I find it somewhere??

If the driver dont exist how can I communicate with this instrument using GOIB?

thanks a lot for your help.

There are both IVI and CVI drivers available for the instrument. Both use VISA. You don't mention what programming environment you are working in but the IVI driver can be used in all. If you prefer to write your own and are using LabVIEW, then you can use the Instrument I/O Assistant or check the information under the Devlop topic at https://www.ni.com/en/support/downloads/instrument-drivers.html for getting guidlines and other information.

 hi dennis,

i am using the labview environment and i would rather use the available libraries. are there any good tutorials available for that??

Tutorial on using what available library? The llb with the IVI driver or something else? There's an app note on IVI drivers at https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA03q000000x0dzCAA&l=en-US.
