Installation and Configuration
Step 4. Configuring Hardware/Software Assets
To Edit the VISA Library Field Select the VISA Library field and select either Agilent Technologies or
National Instruments from the drop-down selection box.
The selection that you make is dependent on the Slot 0 module being used
with your system.
This is important because a unique copy of the visa32.dll is used by both the
Agilent Technologies and National Instruments VISA Library, and both of
these libraries use a different version of this file. The most current
installation of one of these VISA Libraries will have their version of the
visa32.dll file installed. So, the VISA Library that is selected must
correspond with the Slot 0 module being used.
