VISA USB

[meihk]

Hi everyone,

My lecture gave me this project: "Communicate between C# and microprocessor (STM32F407) via USB, using VISA driver". 

Can you guys help me answering my question below?

 I'm not sure how the project will be executed. STM32 will send some data to through USB cable to PC's USB port. Do I need to open LABView, read data via VISA function, then transfer that data to Visual Studio (C#). Or VISA is just the driver and when I send data from STM32, the PC will read that data in USB port with VISA driver, and then Visual Studio take data directly from that USB port?

Thank you for reading and if you are familiar with this topic, please answer me asap.

VISA has nothing to do with LabVIEW. Your assignment is to use C# and VISA: Develop VISA and GPIB applications using C# or VB .NET

Hi thols,

Thank you for replying me that fast. If possible, can you help me to specify this further question?

After install the VISA driver, do I need any further configuration to ensure that PC will recognize the microprocessor via USB-HID not USB-COM port?

Moreover, usually I use the cable below to connect STM32 and PC via COM port. Can that cable be used in this case?

Thank you and hope to hearing from you soon.

Isn't part of the assignment to find out how to do it? It took me 5 seconds to find the link I provided. I suggest you do some digging and get back when you are stuck.
