followup on IVI drivers

[Chad]

Hi,

Thanks all for the help on IVI drivers.

I want to develop a simple interface for a scope. I want to use IVI class
drivers (the "green" drivers?) so that I am as hardware independant as
possible. I have a simple example using the scope class drivers that I am
happy with right now.

I have drivers for my current scope, from lecroy. When I install these
drivers, to
$labview_path/instr.lib/lcwpxxx
I don't get any files with a .dll extension. I can use instrument specific
("blue", right?) drivers from this set-up.
I think I must have a .dll to be able to install a driver in max, then
install a virtual instrument, then install a logical name?

Is there something I can do to make this driver work?

Thanks,
Chad

Check your VXIpnp\Bin folder for the .dll. I believe you should also have a separate folder for the instrument under VXIpnp if it was installed correctly.

Thanks, that was the right place to look.
