Where can I find the dll for my Agilent E82xx?

I unzipped the library files of the E82xx driver in a directory in the inst.lib folder and wanted to start a VI, when the message came that the E82xx_32.dll could not be found. Do I have to download this file or where do I get if from.
Greetings!

As the notes on the download payge stae, the driver is not supported or maintained by NI. It's an Agilent driver. I would check www.agilent.com for it. It would be listed there as a plug and play driver.

Just putting the dll in the folder may not be enough, sometimes they have to be registered.

Bob,

You need to install the Agilent VXIplug&play driver first. On the LabVIEW driver download page, there is a link to the Agilent's VXIplug&play driver but it is currently broken and we are in the progress of fixing it. Here is the correct link to all Agilent's VXIplug&play drivers:

The VXIplug&play driver for your model can be found here:

I hope this helps.

Thanks a lot to all. I found the driver and installed it. Unfortunately my problem isn't solved because I tried to use the E82xx templates which are originally written for the signal generators up to 40 GHz for my new 67 GHz E8257. But it seems until now that the functions aren´t the same. At least the VIs state an error when I try to run it. I assume nobody has any experience in that manner? I expect I have to write the necessary functions to control the generator by myself.
