Is there any available IVI-COM driver for NI-6652 for Visual Basic

Hi,

 Is ther any available IVI-COM driver for the NI-6652 timing module that is compatible with Visual Basic. We are currently planning to use the NI-6652 along with the AXRF subsystme on testing RF devices using the VB-based IGXL from Teradyne

The driver that we use to communicate the board is called NI-Sync and unfortunately it only supported LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI or C

Thanks for the information. I've heard you need a wrapper for the Microsoft Visual Basic to communicate with Ni-Sync which in turn drives the NI PXI 6652 module.  Is there a site or resource where we can get that wrapper (.bas format) and also shows a few sample codes as well (i.e. initialize, connect terminals, generate clock pulse)?

Hey I think that you might have to write your own wrapper since we don't have our own for the newer versions of NI-Sync. Nevertheless I have found a document that provide a wrapper for NI-Sync 2.0 to VB 6

I thinks that this could provide an idea of how you want to build your own, since you need at least NI-Sync 3.1 to communicate with your NI-PXI 6652, Here is a document that verified what I'm saying.

Regarding the examples, I thinks this could be a good one to get started with the driver, if you need you could search for more in our community.
