Spectrum Analyser measurements are faster if NI Spy is running

[celeocaddie@YAHoo.fr]

Hello,

I am using an Agilent spectrum analyser (E44xx) with the ivi driver agesa_LV80. You will find my sub-vi in attachement...

I would like to run it as fast as possible and I have just noticed that the acquisition is running faster when I am using NI Spy in the same time.

Do you have any idea why communication is slower when I don't use NI Spy ?

Thanks for your help,
