Anybody know if there are any samples or a general style guide for writing an instrument driver using the native .NET VISA assembly? In other words, I want to create an instrument driver in C# using NI-VISA with the VisaNS assembly. Note: I do not want to create a wrapper class for an IVI driver and I do not want to use that VisaNS Instrumentation Task Class. I want to create a pure C# driver that just uses the VisaNS assembly. Sort of what you would do in LabVIEW by using the instrinsic VISA functions in LabVIEW. The only examples that ship with Measurement Studio is for a simple Read/Write which is pretty trivial.

Measurement Studio for .NET Languages

Hello at all,

I think that I found the right forum to solve my problem, or to receive a good hint.

i want to get data from a Tektronix mso4054 scope. But I don´t want to use their Software.

So I want to programm also an interface to the scope with c#. But I do not know how to start.

I read, that VISA assembleys NationaInstruments.Common and NationalInstruments.VisaNS are necessary

as References. But where I get the VisaNS ??

And what is still needful to programm this connection? For any hints or files, like you mentioned I would be happy and thankful.

Greetings

marcela
