BK Precision 85XX Run Constant Current Mode Operation.vi"

[NivethaShivan]

I am trying to interface BK Precision 8500 Electronic Load with LabVIEW. I need the .vi file so that I can get access to the .vi block diagram of the same. I am using it in Constant current mode. Basically I want to change the load of my DC -DC converter by changing the current. Could someone please help me get access to this .vi block diagram? I have a Student version labVIEW in my system. I don't know if that is the reason I am not able to view the block diagram when I got this .vi link in NI Example Finder. 

The link for the .vi block diagram:

How did you gain access to this VI? Did you use LabVIEW to search for the BK drivers and access it that way? If not, I can help you navigate to the drivers and examples. Also, when you have access to the example, is the front panel just gray or does it have a gray grid? If it is gray with no grid, it may be locked and you won't be able to access the block diagram. If it has a grid, you should be able to press "Ctrl" "E" and view the block diagram. A student version of LV should not prevent you from accessing the block diagram, that is if it is available for viewing in the first place.

I downloaded the driver and was unable to open the VI itself from the example finder. Error message about the path

Can you try the examples again?  I just tried and they seem okay. You should be able to view the block diagrams.

Using 2010, there is no problem when I browse to the VIs and open the project. From the example finder though, I get the message:

"That file could not be found or opened. You may need to reinstall your examples."

Then it gives the path to the example. I installed the driver by going to the Tools menu and Instrumentation>Find Instrument Drivers. I just now deleted the driver and did a manual download. After restarting LabVIEW, the example finder now works. I can't explain why but it all seems okay now.

I think the op meant VI and not block diagram.
