Example VI for a Vektrex current pulse generator

[chrlum47]

Would anybody happen to have an example VI for a Vektrex current pulse generator,
using visa commands, and an ethernet interface.

The company Vektrex does not offer a LabVIEW driver for this or any instrument.

The problem is I can communicate with the instrument correctly, however repeated operations I'm running into a
communication disconnect problem.

I'm fairly new to LabVIEW ethernet interface communication,
So I thought perhaps somebody else has produced a Vektrex current pulse generator VI and this may show what I need to add in order to get reliable operation.

I know this is kind of an overall general request but if somebody also had any instrumentation VI that uses an ethernet interface that may be helpful.

I'm using LabVIEW 2015

Thank you

If it uses the same SCPI over ethernet, nothing special is required, you can use VISA APIs as you would do with GPIB/USB/RS232 protocols.

Based on my uses of other ethernet interface based instruments that's kinda what I thought.
However.. Nice to hear the reassurance ..

Thank you

I don't know the model you've but based on this document, it is just SCPI over ethernet

Probably you are good with VISA APIs or as the company 'claims' try getting the LabVIEW APIs
