I summarize what we talked:

1.I can't use agilent usb-gpib convertor and labview together,at least it  works no easy.

2.We real can use IVI driver to communicate,but it needs some adapting to make the driver suit for the instrument.It will spend a lot time.

3.Labview gpib tools,can't communicate with agilent card/convertor,even if I installed the agilent drivers.

4.If i use ni-card,labview gpib template will work fine,it will more easy.

I still wonder what use of that let the instrument appears in max,if we can't control it ,it losts the meaning.So it must have purpose and use.

And that important,if i use ni-card,is it will work fine?

You seem to be missing the whole point. Half of your statements are completely incorrect.

1. You are able to use the Agilent controller and LabVIEW together. You use the VISA functions to communicate. These replace the GPIB functions.

2. If you can find an IVI driver, you can use it unmodified. IVI is based on VISA and you should alwasy use VISA.

3. That is correct but who cares. You should be using the VISA functions.

4. That is correct as well but again, who cares about using the GPIB functions when you have VISA.

Neither NI, Agilent, and probably the majority of users, suggest that you use GPIB functions. Learn to use VISA and your life will be much easier.

Use VISA instead of GPIB!

Use VISA instead of GPIB!

Use VISA instead of GPIB!

Have I made myself clear? Use VISA instead of GPIB!

I use VIsa pallette instead of GPIB,it works.
