AgtVsaVector.fp

Hi,

 

Here in Airspan integration Lab we have a few Agilent MXA N9020A hardware’s. (MXA).

The Agilent MXA N9020A is a signal analyzer computer with operation system. (WIN XP SP3).

 

One of the software that we running on this hardware is the Agilent 89600 Vector Signal Analyzer software. (VSA).

 

this software compatible to many other Agilent hardware’s, not necessarily the N9020A.

 

we have the ability to automate the MXA computer with the VSA software from a remote computer (using DCOM).

We are writing our automation DLL’s using NI CVI 8.1.1 and using NI Test Stand 4.0 to run them.

 

we are using Agilent 89600 Vector Signal Analyzer 9.0 API.

this is a “high level” VSA API bulid on Agilent  “low level” VSA API.

 

yesterday we installed the VSA version 12 software and tried to run our automation test.

Unfortunately the automation functions didn’t work well or not worked at all in this version.

 

To my understanding in order to automate the VSA 12 software we need the equivalent version of the AgtVsaVector.fp file.

 

we have the AgtVsaVector.fp file as an instrument file added to our project.

This file gives us the Agilent 89600 Vector Signal Analyzer 9.0 API.

 

i can't find any reference regarding this file & newer versions in NI site.

 

i contact Agilent and they said that this file is a NI file.

You might have some luck by creating a new ActiveX Controller from within the CVI wizard, if the necessary support files came with your new software. This will end up with a new .fp file which might meet your needs.
