Instrument Control (GPIB, Serial, VISA, IVI)

finding instruments in visual basic .net

I just installed the .net classes. I then ran the example projects. A new device is created with
device = new Device(0,2,0)
This does not throw an exception even though there are no GPIB devices attached.

So my questions are
1. How can you tell if a particular device is attached, and
2. Is there any equivalent to the NI-288.2 multi-device calls

Thanks.

Hi Chuck,

This same question was addressed on another discussion forum. The answer is to use the FindListener method.
