That's what the drivers use. Smiley Wink

As far as I can tell, I only posted one question, and that's only because I read the wrong manual and had no idea how to even find the information I was looking for. I'm just teaching myself as I go along instead of all at the beginning, and I don't intend to ask someone to create a .vi file for me. Also, all the .vi files that are online all use GPIB read/write, so not only would I have to convert them to VISA read/write, they are also more complicated than I need them to be - I was asked to make it simple. That is also why I'm creating it from scratch.

That is not correct. The driver for which I posted the link in my first response are drivers that use VISA.

 

While it's true that there are a fair number of old drivers in IDNET use GPIB functions rather than VISA, the statement "all the .vi files that are online all use GPIB read/write" is simply wrong.

smercurio_fc: Mm, you are correct. I was just looking through the drivers that you linked to me. Thanks for all the help, I can probably take it from here. It's going to be a late night tonight reading through all this lol.
