Config channel for agilent 34970A

[vanphu]

Hi everybody!

I problem with agilent 34970A

I want to configure one by one channel for agilent 34970A

Example :

channel 101 : DC Voltage

channel 102 : Resistance

channel 103 : Temperature

...

but I don't know configure how?

Can you help me!
Thanks very much.

Hello Van,

       If you have LabVIEW, I highly recommend that you use the LabVIEW Instrument Driver for your instrument.  I should already have a lot of functionality built in, and might already do everything that you are looking for.

Cheers,

Hi NathanT!

Thank you help me!

I used driver of agilent 34970A

I use "hp34970a.llb"

But I only the configurate one channel or configurate all channel is DC Voltgate without the configurate one by one as:

channel 101 : DC Voltgate

channel 102 : Resistance

channel 103 : Temperate

...

Hi Van,

If there is no way to configure the channels one by one using the instrument drivers, you might need to get the instrument set from the manufacturer of the instrument and use the VISA API to send the commands to the instruments for individually setting the configuration for each channel.

Hi everybody!

Thank you help me.

If i use Agilent BnchLink Data Logger Pro Software, I can configurate the channel one by one.

But I want use labview to configurate the channel one by one.

If I use command "CONFigure:VOLTage: DC (@101)",I can configurate the channel 101.when I configurate the channel 102 then channel 101 is OFF

How do you to configurate the channel 101 then configurate the channel 102 but channel 101 unchanged

Since you have your answer marked as the solution, can we assume that you have actually run thr example that sets different channels for different measurements and no longer need any help?

Hi everybody!

I used command "ROUTE:SCAN (@ <scanlist>) to add program
I can configurate the channel one by one.

Thank you everybody.

Hey guys I see this is a pretty old thread but I'll post an example of how to address this issue, at least the one I use.

Below you can see I've addressed channels 101-113 for Temperature, then Channels 201-205 Voltage, 206-207 Resistance and 208 a different Range Voltage. The same can be pretty much done with only a few exception...

I've had trouble Measuring Multiple AC Voltages in the past. I've placed them on a separate card even but to no avail Otherwise good luck.
