I am a newbie learning VB .NET with the latest version of Visual Studio 2019 Community and the current version of NI-VISA 19. I am trying to communicate with a Siglent spectrum analyzer. The NI-VISA .NET examples are for C not VB but with an older version of NI-VISA (NationalInstruments.VisaNS) this snip of code worked but no longer. I now get an error that GetLocalManager is no longer a member of ResourceManager. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance and stay safe
Imports NationalInstruments.Visa
Imports Ivi.Visa
Public Class Form1
Dim mbSession As MessageBasedSession
Dim visa_string As String
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
visa_string = TextBox1.Text
mbSession = CType(ResourceManager.GetLocalManager().Open(visa_string), MessageBasedSession)
Dim responseString As String = mbSession.Query("*IDN?")
MsgBox(responseString)
mbSession.Dispose()
End Sub
End Class
