LabwindowsCVI reading out VSA 89601A software over ActiveX

[tisiman]

Hello

I am used to read out eqipment like spectrum analyzer over GPIB with labWindowsCVI using the function panel (.fp) files.
Now a "modern" spectrum analyzer like the VSA 89601A software is handled over activeX.
Now I am new to this activeX stuff and I also dit not find any driver for the VSA 89601A software.
The only thing I found is AgilentReadoutEVM. That's exactly what I'd like to do.
Does anyone have a LabwindowsCVI example driving the VSA 89601A software?
Does anyone have a driver with some explanation (help on activeX functions) ?
Any other tips how to get started?
Thanks, tisiman
