If the blue
IO icon is not displayed, either the blue IO icon display has
been turned off and/or the Agilent IO Control (and associated
iprocsvr.exe) is not active. In this case, click Start > Programs > Agilent
IO Libraries
and then click Agilent IO Control to re-start the Agilent IO
Control and to display the blue
IO icon.
Install IO Libraries Suite (if 82350 was Installed First)
• If you installed the 82350 GPIB card before installing the Agilent
IO Libraries Suite software, use the applicable step for your
operating system to install the Agilent IO Libraries Suite. After
the drivers for all new cards are installed, you can run
Setup from
the Automation-Ready CD with Agilent IO Libraries Suite to
install and configure the Agilent IO Libraries Suite.
NOTE
When you install the Agilent IO Libraries Suite, drivers for your 82350
GPIB card will be installed automatically. You should not need to take
additional steps to install drivers. The information in this section is
provided to assist you in case you have problems with your GPIB card
and drivers.
NOTE
On older operating systems, you may be asked to insert the 'HP I/O
Libraries' CD. You should use the CD that contains the Agilent IO
Libraries Suite in this case. The card will be identified as a
Hewlett-Packard card. This is necessary for backward compatibility.
NOTE
On Windows 2000, the Found New Hardware Wizard will identify this
card as a
PCI Simple Communications Controller. The driver is typically
located in the \Windows 2000 directory on the instrument CD.
