How to send commands like &H840000000 using VISA write?

I have to use Hamamatsu Photon counting head H7467-01. Due to certain precautions

I am not connecting it to the computer. However, the commands to be used

are known.

They are like &H840000000 etc.

Could anybody please tell me if writing the above command

straight into the write buffer of the VISA Write will do the job?

Other post indicates user is using LabVIEW.

 

You can either:

  • Create a string contant, change the display format to hex (right-click on string contant) and enter the value 8400000000.
  • Create a byte array (an array constant that has U8 integers as the element) and then use the Byte Array to String function (or Type Cast).

To learn more about LabVIEW it is recommended that you go through the introduction material, tutorial(s), and other material in the NI Developer Zone's Learning Center which provides links to other materials and other tutorials. You can also take the online courses for free.
