Creating LabVIEW application to control Thor Labs ITC5000 Series (ITC5022) Card mounted in TXP5000

Hi I apologise as I am very new to LabVIEW and programming with drivers in general. We have 4 ITC5022 cards mounted in a TXP5000. It comes with labVIEW drivers for developers without great documentation, and also an application. I would like to change the application but they won't release the source code.

 

Has anyone created their own application using these drivers that would be willing to share them so I could investigate them?

 

I attempted to create the most basic program possible, just to connect to the card, read one value, and then disconnect the card. It seems to connect but fails when attempting to read any value, so I guess there more necessary to initialise the card. The ThorLabs application takes about 10 seconds to get the card ready, and i'm not sure how to do this.

 

I've attached my very simple program and the necessary libraries. Does anyone know how to do this?

 

Thanks very much in advance for your repsonse

James

Sorry I have realised all i had to do was add a wait time after connecting. However if anyone does have anything they could share with me that would be massively useful. Please
