TDK Lambda GEN 150-10

[SebastianMienie]

Hi All

I have a TDK Lambda power supply unit and would like to control it using Lab View 17. I see that the VI instrument drives for this hardware from NI does not support Ethernet interface for this unit only IEEE, serial and USB interfaces.

I need to use LAN connection. Do I add a switch as a middle man between my PC and the power supply units or can I use a LAN to USB adapter cable and then use the USB VI drivers?

I am new to Lab view so do mind the silly question and help is much appreciated.

According to the manual http://www.us.tdk-lambda.com/hp/pdfs/Product_manuals/83034100.pdf, you should be able to connect through TCP then send and receive typical SCPI commands/queries.  LabVIEW is well suited for this.
