Requesting help in finding windows IVI driver for Thermostream - Temptronics ATS-545 M9

I am using the Temptronics ATS-545 M9 instrument. I am in currently in process of automating the Thermo-stream.  To do this activity we need windows IVI driver for Thermostream - Temptronics ATS-545 M9. I heard Instrument model TP04310 and ATS-545-M-9 both are same. I found CVI drivers. But i need IVI C/IVICOM drivers for my purpose to integrate to python code.

 

Thanks in advance!!

If the manufacturer doesn't supply one, you probably won't find one for an instrument that is not widely used.

You should be asking Temptronics about the differences.

With LabWindows/CVI, you can create your own IVI-C driver. With Visual Studio, you can create your own IVI-NET driver. You could pay someone to write one. You don't have to use a driver at all.

One other item to note, Thermostream is not one of the IVI instrument classes   so you wouldn't be able to get the benefits of interchangeability.

Additionally, if the CVI driver comes with a dll, you can use that.

You can request someone to create a dll. Post to the CVI board or the jobs board and pay someone to do it. Or, you can skip the whole idea of using a driver and make VISA calls to the instrument.
