GPIB-KUSB-488A and labview connection problem

Can any one tell me how to establish a connection with an instrument using the KUSB-488A USB to GPIB converter and LABVIEW? 

 

I've installed gpib 488 Keithley driver and the device is working fine. But I don't see the GPIB menu in MAX on LabView. 

 

Someone please help. I'd be grateful.

 

Thanks

MAX only works with NI products, so it is useless to you since you are using a Keithley GPIB card.

 

In LabVIEW, use the VISA drivers to communicate with your instruments.

Could you please provide some tutorials on how to use VISA to read data. I'd be grateful
