HP4145A Programming Help

I have seen on this forum that people have been using the driver that can be found somewhere on this website to control the instrument but I have decided that I cannot be bothered figuring out the graphics plot.vi thing because it is too complicated for me. So Idecided to start making my own VI for the HP4145A, at the moment it is only very simple, I have one VI that sets up three SMU channels. Two that are set as constants which the user can set, the other as a sweep, also which can be set. I also have a VI that takes the readings from a list and puts them into an array. I am using the measurement I/O VI that comes with LabView by the way.

 

The problems that I am having are.

 

1.How can I make it so that instead of pressing run to start the channel definition I can have a button so I can change the values a few times before I run a measurement? (does that make sense?)

 

2. The data that I read off is that of three currents with the voltage being the x axis ( in a list) but I cannot access the voltage column, is it possible. Because otherwise how am I going to get graphs?

 

Thats it I think I'll post my VI's below

duplicate post

 

p.s. Posting images of the Instrument I/O Assistant does not anything since all of the commands are hidden.

Ok. Just thought I would be as helpful as I could.

 

Any advice?

In the original thread - attach the actual VI.
