Setting hp3649 power supply voltage in IVI steps TS 4

Thank you Natahn.

Do you have any idea about the other problem I have with configuration using IVI_C step SW trigger?

Hello Elik,

        By problem, do you mean "When trying to use the software trigger to change the voltage level no change occur and NI spy does not show any error."?  If so, than I don't think that you have a problem.  The drivers in simulation do not do anything special to show what the simulated instrument is outputting.  If you had a live instrument, you could look at the instrument's display or measure the output.  In simulation mode, the only calls that NI-Spy should be capturing are the IVI Class driver calls.  When you have a live instrument, you can choose to also see the NI-VISA calls so you can see the actual commands that are being sent to the instrument (such as *TRG for SW trigger for many instruments).

        If your problem is something else, please provide more details.

 

Cheers,

Hi Nathan,

The problem lies within the expectation that the driver will follow the same behavior in configure as in SW trigger. In configure the soft panel change the output voltage display as you configure it in sequence steps. I guess I was expecting that the soft panel in simulation mode will do the same as I change the output voltage parameter. Currently I can achieve the effect by re configure.Thank you for all your help.
