How to change the device template in GPIB 2.0

I am not able to communicate with the device. I am using the function call ibfind. Previous versions of the GPIB enabled us to modify the device name from dev0. How do I do this in NI 488.2 2.0 version?

Please help thanks

Praveen.

In the NI-488.2\bin\ directory within the installation directory, there is an executable gpibconf.exe that will allow you to modify the device templates. Just run the executable and you should be able to change dev0 to another name.
