Looking for a front panel VI for HP 8560 or 8590 series spectrum analyzers

[Daryl T. Hunter]

I'm looking for a front panel VI for HP 8560 or 8590 series spectrum
analyzers. My application is to use an ENET-GPIB interface to remotely
control the spectrum analyzer and display traces.

I've just received my copy of Labview 6i and I've started work on rolling my
own, but figured it's worth checking to see if this is already available
before I reinvent the wheel.

Thanks,

Daryl Hunter

Run the installers bellow, restart LabVIEW6 and then select the following from the menubar:
Tools>>Instrumentation>>Update VXIplug&play Drivers...
Select the driver to convert to LabVIEW and hit "OK"

8560 Series VXI-PnP driver:

8590 Series VXI-PnP Driver:

The Instrument drivers will now be in your Functions>>InstrumentI/O>>InstrumentDrivers palette.
