Labview Driver for MKS 647C

Has anyone developed a Labview driver for the MKS 647C Gas Flow Controller? I am using the instrument locally and have it connected to the computer through a USB port. I've looked online for Labview drivers for my instrument; however, I cannot find them anywhere. Any drivers you could provide me to control the flow controller would be greatly appreciated. In fact, any tips/suggestions/comments with this would be appreciated. I have a feeling that I may need to develop the drivers for the MKS Flow Controller. So feel free to provide your input...

Hi USM1,

It looks like you'll need to create that driver for the device. You can definitely find information for instrument drivers in a couple of places.

1) ID-Net
2) The Instrument Drivers page of the Instrument Control Fundamentals.

You should be able to find information regarding creation of instrument drivers in both of these resources. If you need additional resources, please let us know.

Regards,
