Tools to Make Your Test Development Process
as Easy as it is Successful
4
System-ready convenience
Selecting an Agilent instrument for your test is an easy
choice-because it makes system setup so easy for you.
Because our IO Libraries Suite software is included
with every Agilent Open instrument, you’ll get an error
free connection to your instruments every time. How?
Agilent’s connection Expert installs automatically,
configuring interfaces, discovering other instruments
(regardless of the manufacturer), and verifying their
connections. In less than 15 minutes (yes, minutes)-
and with just one reboot-your PC can be up, running,
and communicating with your instruments.
Standard PC I/O interfaces
It's hard to connect instruments to your system when
they don’t have the right interface. Agilent minimizes
the frustrations of mixed I/O interfaces by offering
GPIB, LAN and USB ports in Agilent Open instruments.
This gives you the flexibility to choose the interface
that works best with your system now- and use
another one in the future. No other test and measure-
ment vendor supports more standard PC interfaces.
The flexibility to program in any software environment.
Chances are, you’re an engineer, not a programmer.
So why spend time struggling with unfamiliar program-
ming languages just to set up a test? Agilent Open
means you can work in the development environment
you’re already comfortable with-whatever that environ-
ment might be. The IO Libraries Suite connectivity
software easily transitions you to Excel or popular pro-
gramming languages such as Visual Basic, C, LabVIEW,
Agilent VEE Pro, Visual Basic.NET, Visual C++, Visual C#
and others. So you can focus your efforts on the results
from your device, not the code that gets you there.
