hello, may I ask is there any Agilent E3631A example where I can use two output channel with different voltage at once in LabVIEW. thanks.

Hi Liyana,

You might want to try the Agilent driver from the Instrument Driver Network. There is an example included that lets you select which channel you are outputting voltage on. You can basically copy and paste the code that does this to control another channel.

Hi Frank, 

I have installed Instrument Driver Network & I used the example. I also have copied and paste the code to control another channel. However there are 2 errors showed up (attachment). How can I solve this? 

Thanks,

Liyana

Your front panel does not make any sense at all. You should not have a second VISA resource. You should only be copying the function to configure the channel and it should be in-line with the existing function for channel one.

Do you mean I should copied like this? It still shows the same errors

[Dennis_Knutson]

No. That makes no sense either. You copy it into the same single chain. You are trying to do things in parallel and that does not work. You must do things sequentially as the original example doors.

Okay I have change it and it is working now with out any errors.  Thanks
