MAX API

[boucan_canot974]

Hello,

I would like to know if there is an API for Measurement and Automation eXplorer?
It woud be to configure IVI instrument drivers under MAX with a CVI application.

Regards, Pascal.

Hi,

IVI Engine 2.0 has function which returns handle to Config Store. This function you can find in IVI Library>>Configuration>>GetConfigStoreHandle. This handle you can use for function from IviConfigServer.h.

I attached test.c file which reads all logical names from your config store. More information, you can find in IviConfigStore specification on www.ivifoundation.org.

Regards,
Zdenek

Hello Pascal,

The IVI Foundation has defined a C API to programmatically access and modify any IVI Configuration Store file. This API is defined in the IVI-3.5 IVI Configuration Server specification and is installed as part of the NI IVI Compliance Package 2.x. The relevant files are installed in the C:\Program Files\IVI\ directories. These are IviConfigurationServer.h, IviConfigurationServer.lib, and IviConfigurationServerCAPI.dll.

Atteched is a simple example on how to programmatically access the configuration file.

I hope this helps!
