I haven't found any on NI's website. I tried searching Spirent's website but they didn't even have an on-line catalog. You might want to go to their website and making a request. You can click on "Contact Us" and then send them a message. Ask if they have a driver for you. It's always possible someone may have submitted something to them.

Who are you asking? Staunton has not posted anything in 5 years (which you could have checked yourself). I have not programmed Spirent's line simulator but I have done others and not found them very difficult at all. If sprient does not have any code, you can use the Instrument I/O Assistant, create your own driver with guidelines at the Instrument Driver Network, or just use some diescret VISA Read and Write functions. I would recomend you do most of your initial debug in MAX to send and receive commands. If you have problems, you might want to post the code you have written and an electronic copy of the programming manual.

I think we've  just figured it out. We are trying to talk to a DLS 8130 series wire line simulators. This WLS is pretty dificult it has .dlls that you have to call on. Thanks anyway for your response.

i have no luck calling the .dll file correctly. So i end up using the convt8130.exe, which is not ideal. Do you have success in using ...convertapi.dll to work?
