If you downloaded Agilent 816x VXI Plug&Play Driver, you can use it in CVI immediately. You don't need conver anything for CVI. fp file is part of CVI driver.

In project window select menu item Instrument>>Load. Load the hp816x.fp. Add #include to your C code and you can use all function from driver.
