Looking for programmer commands

[Hans Spincemaille]

Hello there,

We're 2 students who are doing their thesis in Imec, Belgium, and we're
looking for the programmer commands to control different instruments through
the GPIB card with Labview.
Those instruments are:
- Function Generator HP 33120A
- Oscilloscope TDS... (haven't been there for a while, and lost my
notes)
- Atomic Force Microscope (idem dito)

Next week we'll be there again, and I can look it up, so I let u know....

On the internet, we found out that for the oscilloscope, the commands were
discribed in the "TDS Family Digitalising Oscilloscopes Programmer Manual"
(070-8709-01), but we can't find it on the internet.

So, can somebody help us with this commands?

Thx in advance,

Hans Spincemaille

Hi,
normally you should find a driver library for the
HP33120A and Tek-scopes on the second CD shipped with
LabVIEW. If you don't have them - look at Natinst-website http://zone.ni.com/idnet There you can download driver-libraries for your instruments, maybe that Atomic..... is not available. The GPIB-command-set and the manuals you can find on HP's (now agilent.com) and tektronix.com website's. If your search should be not successfull - please write to: werner.hasche@web.de - I can send the needed info to
you. If necessary you can have some example-programs.
These instruments I have in use via GPIB. Because I could reuse some good ideas from IMEC, you should get something back.............

I'm not sure what you mean by programmer commands but you can check the instrument driver network for LabVIEW code that may already be written for these devices.
