"Import LabWindows/CVI Instrument Driver" option is missing in my LabVIEW

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello,

 

I am using LabVIEW 2017 and I need to use an old instrument driver for LabWindows/CVI. The driver is for power supply Digistant 6706.

I read here that I have to use Tools>>Instrumentation>>Import LabWindows/CVI Instrument Driver, but this option is missing in my LabView.

I have checked also LabVIEW 2014 and this option is missing there too.

 

Do somebody has an idea how to use this driver in LabVIEW?

 

Thank you!

Hi,

    before many years I've able to create Labview driver based on dll function provided from Digistant. Unfortunately it worked very unstable and I\ve designed to create my own. I've able to scan the serial communication and track the massages between PC and Digistant. Based on that created simple driver serves the most common commands.  

Below is the code for the Digistant 6706.

Enjoy.
