HP 436A labview driver

[Dannic]

Looking for a Labview driver for an old HP 436A Power meter. It needs
to be labview 6.0 or something I can run in labview 6.0. Please let
me know where I might find one.

Thanks.

There is a Contributed driver for the HP 437B Power Meter on the Instrument Driver Network. This "driver" only consists of a couple of crude VIs. If this model is similar to the 436A, it can at least help get you started.

Your other option would be to create a LabVIEW wrapper for the HP 437B CVI Driver You will not have access to source code, but this wrapped driver may provide more functionality than the other approach. For more details how to create this wrapper, see the IVI-C Instrument Driver Conversion T
ools for LabVIEW section at http://www.ni.com/devzone/idnet/development.htm.

Hey dannic, I realize this is an old post, but I'm wondering If you ever came up with a HP 436 driver.  I am trying to make one myself right now and am having some problems with the autoranging.  I attached what I came up with, if you want to take a look.
