Hello All,
My problem is that I've been given a piece of compiled LabVIEW software that talks to a few different instruments. Although we have all of the instruments, one of them is from a different manufacturer and is controlled differently than what the code is written for. I would like to create a LabVIEW program that acts as the instrument the software is looking for and just translate the GPIB calls to a form that my instrument can recognize. Does anyone have example code or an idea where to start? I guess my main problem is finding a way for a LabVIEW program to register over GPIB as an instrument with an address since I'm use to just calling them.
Thank you.

I didn't write the original LabVIEW program so I don't have access to the uncompiled version of the files. The instrument that I'm referring to is a temperature controller and if I replaced it I would have to replace a few more components in our vacuum chamber which could cost >$10,000.
Do you know if it's possible to setup a GPIB listener on the same computer? If so how would I do it?
