tkwg20xx

I'm using LabView and would like to import the CVI/LabWindows driver for Tektronix AWG20XX series waveform generators.  I can import the driver into LabView but it is missing the dll file with all the function calls the VIs use.  Does someone have or could compile and post the dll file (tkwg20xx_32.dll) for me?  Thanks. N.B. I'm aware there is a LabView driver but it doesn't have many of the functions I'm interested in.

Hey Phantom,

I took the source files and compiled them into a dll in CVI.  I have included the driver, dll, and CVI project I used to compile.  I would place the dll into the C:\VXIPNP\WinNT\Bin folder if you don't want the upgrade utility to prompt you for the dll.  There are no guarantees that this will completely work (it should but I can't test it).  The only reason I'm not compeltely positive is because we usually try and compile CVI drivers into LabVIEW and vice versa when possible.  Hope this helps!

Thanks.  I get the error "The procedure entry point GetDateTimeElements could not be located in the dynamic link library cvirte.dll."  Any simple solutions or should I just give up and program my own interface?

I downloaded the latest CVI Real-Time Engine and that fixed the above problem.  VIs seem to work fine.  Thanks!

Just to clarify that will be one limitation with this DLL since it was built with CVI.  It will always require the CVI RTE 8.01 or greater to be installed.  I'm glad that worked!
