There are many instrument drivers out there, you could try to see if one is available for your instrument.

You should have a tech manual with the acceptable gpib commands for your instrument. 

I would start with using the tool MAX.  This tool will  tell you if the  commands and syntax you are sending are correct.  Then once you know that the commands work then start writing your LabVIEW code.  Remember to allocate enough bytes for your read functions.
