Can I use one GBIP-Interface with two programs at the same time?

[MeasureMan]

Hi, I have one PCI-GBIP-controller with multiple instruments installed. Now I want to use these instruments with two differents programs at the same time.
E.g.: program 1 uses GPIB0::1 and GPIB0::3
and program 2 uses GPIB0::4 and GPIB0::7

Is this possible??

When I have tried to do this, I always got timeout errors..

Thanx in advance.

Hi,

You shouldn't have any problems accessing different devices from different programs using the same interface. I even used the two VIs to communicate with the same device. Although not the best approach, VISA didn't return any errors.
