USB support for National Intruments Measure for windows

[AndrewBagshaw]

We currently use measure to comminicate with instruments and to return data in to Excel spreadsheets using the GPIB and Serial add ins for Excel. More and more instruments are moving away from these two forms of communication and are using USB connections. Is there a suitible add in to be able to communicate using the USB connection that will work like the GBIB and Serial addin's for measure.

Hi Andrew

The best way to communicate with USB devices is through NI-VISA, i have included a link within this reply that has some information on how usb devices, measurement studio and NI-VISA can all be linked to communicate data efficiently.
