put instrument in local state after closing the connection

I'm using VISA library to access instruments.
How can I force the instrument to go LOCAL after closing the communication by means of viClose??

Franco:

Call viGpibControlREN with VI_GPIB_REN_DEASSERT_GTL, using your GPIB INSTR session. This will send GTL to the device, then deassert REN. Obviously you have to do this *before* calling viClose.
