Has anyone written or is anyone aware of 3rd party LV drivers for the Lecroy Voyager M3 USB analyzer? The API provided by LeCroy has limited capabilities.
Thank you,

Good Morning sammamishmac,
Unfortunately, after looking around a little, I was unable to find any LV drivers for your Lecroy Voyager M3 USB analyzer.
However, if you get to the point of making said drivers, we would appreciate it if you submit them to ni.com/idnet so other users may also benefit. Thank you!

Hi -
Alan from LeCroy oscilloscope tech support here...
One of my coworkers in protocol analyzer tech support asked me to post the following note... The LeCroy Voyager has an Application Program Interface (API) for creating scripts or commands from which a LabVIEW driver can be developed. This API can be controlled remotely using the DCOM protocol. For assistance with the API one can contact the LeCroy Protocol Support Group at psgsupport@lecroy.com.
Best Regards,
Alan

As I stated in my original post "The API provided by LeCroy has limited capabilities". I have attempted to use the DCOM API and have encountered issues. That is why I am inquiring about 3rd party drivers as LeCroy has stated they cannot provide any alternative APIs.
Thanks,
SM

Sammamishmac,
hi I found this thread whilst looking for a driver or other info on a Lecroy CATC Protocol Analyser. It too has an API from LeCroy, which I've been trying to get running. Did you make any progress with the Lecroy Voyager?

We are using the Ellisys Explorer280 with success so far. They do not have a LV drivers but their API is good. This is a small, very responsive company.

George,
As I recall the Lecroy CATC Protocol Analyser is the predesessor of the Voyager but it had a much better API. I have not checked if the Voyager API has been improved recently.

SM,
The API for the Voyager is the same API as the LeCroy/CATC Protocol Analyzers.
Can you please contact me to discuss your requirements in the API?
