Hello, So I am trying controlling a power supply via LabView using USB type B but i have no experience in LabView or programming a power supply. i know i have to follow the instruction of the power supply but i don't know how to start or what to do ? the power supply is GWINSTEK PFR-100. if anyone available in san Diego to help with it, i would really appreciate it.

I hope you are planning on paying for that help.
I wouldn't do work for nothing. 🙂
EDIT:
Since you wrote in your other post that you are a student, what you are asking for would be considered cheating. This reflects very poorly on you.

First, learn to use the power supply manually. Then you can think about what commands are needed to do what you did manually.
Next, learn to use MAX (Measurement and Automation eXplorer). This is where you can find your instrument and mess around with sending commands.
Next, learn LabVIEW basics. There are links to free online training at the top of the LabVIEW board.
Finally, Gwinstek has a driver available here: https://www.gwinstek.com/en-US/products/detail/PFR-100 under the Downloads header. It may even have an example that you can copy and modify to suite your needs.

please before you accusing me of cheating know the whole story. computer engineering is not my major and yes am allowed to use outside sources for help 🙂

Seems like you have done nothing so far, so how is that asking for "help" ? Seems more like having someone do the work for you.
You have presumably been attending class and you learned nothing up to this point?

Ok, let's all relax a bit?
Halfairooz, some things that might help you get more help with this question are the following:
