driver for Glassman HV supply with GE9 option

I have an HV power supply by Glassman with the GE9 option -USB control.  Glassman have provided a LABVIEW driver LLB project file.   The problem is we only have LABWINDOWS.  Could anybody out there with LABVIEW (with the applications Bulder activated) use the NI download "C interface Generator for LABVIEW" and convert it for me to a C file, FPfile and .h file.

Hi rdenni,

 

Thank you for your enquiry. May I suggest you try the 30 day trial of LabVIEW available here, as the trial is for the LabVIEW Professional Development System you should be able to utilise the "C interface Generator for LabVIEW" to attempt driver creation.

 

If the driver doesn't function as intended may I also suggest you contact the instrument vendor directly as they may be able to provide a driver programmed in C that can be used with LabWindows/CVI.

 

Failing the above there is also the VISA API option as the LabVIEW driver provided by Glassman essentially consists of VISA type calls to control the instrument. A tutorial on the use of VISA in LabWindows/CVI is available here.

 

Hopefully this assists the development of your application, please let me know how you get on.

 

Thanks
