Hello all experts,
I am looking for a driver software for Ando AQ-6315A optical spectrum analyzer which can define the connection between the machine and determine the address. During the searching, I found several LLB files but could not a driver. Is there anyone who can send or let me know where I find it?
Have a nice day and I am looking for some nice solution:)
Kind wishes,

GPIB is governed by IEEE-488.2 protocol, which specifies the cable and connector. If you want to connect to a GPIB instrument, you need a GPIB cable and a GPIB interface on your PC (or Mac). The Driver that you need is the IEEE-488.2 driver that comes with LabVIEW's Drivers and Interfaces. So with the right Computer interface and the right cable, just install NI's 488.2 Driver and start programming.

Hi vsong21,
Bob_Schor is right about the driver set and connections. Additionally, while Ando doesn't have a specific LabVIEW driver for the AE-6315A, there are drivers for similar instruments. It might be worth trying the LabVIEW driver for the AQ630B or AQ6317B as they may be similar enough to work.
