Converting a LabView driver to a DLL then calling that DLL from CVI

In this era there are no native CVI drivers; the only option is to convert a
LabView Driver to a DLL and then call that DLL from CVI.  My issue is that I
cannot seem to pass in a string as a Visa Resource Name and have it interpreted
as a LabView Visa Resource Name.  I use the Visa monitor window and my function
calls do not even tickle Visa- nothing is happening inside my LabView DLL.  Is
there a method to debug a LabView DLL?
Or am I missing something stupid?

thanks,
-don

Don,

 

There are LabWindows/CVI instrument drivers, just not for your particular device:

Take a look at this:

You can request a driver from these folks: instrument.drivers@ni.com
