EVS 300 driver

[Weekiat]

Hi im a student from nanyang polytechnic. I know that the driver for EVS 300 is currently not available. But i would like to ask if there is anyway that i would be able to obtain the driver? Or may i know when the driver would be available? As i will need that driver for my project to remotely control the EVS 300 using labVIEW.

Hi Weekiat,

I have searched both through NI and R&S but could not find a downloadable driver for LabVIEW of the said hardware.

I think this might one of the newer products of R&S and as such no driver exists.

In this case you may need to write your own driver to communicate with the EVS 300.

From the EVS-300 Manual, EVS 300 has either an RS232 or LAN connectivity for remote control and you can use either to communicate the device in LabVIEW.

NI has released quite a good reference on how to create plug and play drivers for instruments, please refer here.

R&S also has a youtube account but I dont think that have included in depth discussion on how to create drivers for those devices that does not have drivers yet.

Either you create the driver from scratch as indicated above, or you would need to ask any R&S technical support if they have drivers for this that has not been released yet for public usage.

I hope this clarifies your concern. Good luck with your application.

Thanks,

Sher
