Adjust driver to work on c#

[Tatiana05]

Hello everyone,

I want to create some programme on c# that will help me to control Keithley Power Supply.

I have downloaded and installed the LabWindows/CVI 8.5 driver for Keithley 2306-VS Power Supply since I don't find nothing else except this one and one for LabVIEW. 

Is there any way to adjust this driver to work on c#? I have Visual Studio 2010.

It's my first time trying to do this, I will appreciate your help.

Thanks a lot.

If there are no C# drivers, you either have to write a driver yourself using low level scpi stuff or call the C-DLL using platform invoke.

Hope this helps.

Hi Tatiana05,

As kkeller mentioned, if there are no C# drivers available, you may have to create your own. Otherwise, there is a chance you could use a wrapper for existing drivers and use them with C#. I have attached an article with some additional information on this below. 

Using IVI Specific Drivers in Visual Basic .NET, Visual C# or Visual Basic 6 Applications: http://www.ni.com/tutorial/4562/en/
