I'm trying to connect to an Agilent MSO-X 4154A scope with the IVI driver. This is my first time dealing with IVI drivers although I have experience with standard VISA drivers. I have the IVI Compliance Package 4.6 installed and is displayed in the software tab of MAX. I installed the IVI driver for the scope from idnet. The scope is connected over ethernet. I can see the scope in MAX under the "devices and interfaces" tab and tested communication to it by sending the *IDN message. That was successful. In the IVI tab I created a new driver session for the scope and logical name. I believe I have that setup right.
In Labview 2013 I loaded the example "IviScope - Acq Dual Wfm Edge Triggered.vi." The first problem I encountered was that when the VI is loading it can't find "IVIscope.dll." If I browse for it I can find it in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\IVI Foundation\IVI\Bin" folder. The VI seems to load ok if I tell it to choose the dll in that folder, but I still question why it doesn't find it in the first place.
The second problem is that I don't see the logical name I created in the dropdown menu of the example VI. It doesn't show any logical names even though the logical name I created is clearly shown in MAX. I'm not sure what the problem is. My first though was that the IVI compliance package was bad but I tried a reinstall of that and it didn't help.
My system is:
Windows 7 64bit
IVI Compliance Package 4.6
Labview 2013
VISA 5.4
Any help would be appreciated
