Kaysight Instrument drivers

‎02-13-2020 10:05 AM

HI,

Does any one have any Labview Instrument drivers for Keysight 8164B LMS? The earlier 8164A dll doesnt work anymore as it is a 32-bit wrapper implementation. 

 

I am looking to perform an IL-PDL sweep using a TLS inserted into Keysight 8164B LMS, a Polarimeter and a Power detector. 

 

The IL and PDL involves the triggering mechanism thats where i am totally lost and dont have sequence of SCPI commands to run.  

Thanks for your hep..

Two things come to mind...

 

  1. Do you really need to be using 64bit LabVIEW?
    1. Honestly unless your program needs to access more than 3.5 Gigabytes of physical RAM there is no need for 64bit LabVIEW 
  2. The Programming reference has all the SCPI commands in it that you should need.
    1. After all most LabVIEW "drivers" are just VI's someone else made using the SCPI commands.
