In This Guide…
This guide introduces you to the fundamentals of Agilent
Visual Engineering Environment (VEE Pro), along with some
complex examples
1 The VEE Pro 8 Fundamentals
This chapter explores the fundamentals of VEE Pro 8. It
consists of an explanation of Mouse use and navigation of
tool bars and menus. The final two exercises show how to
develop a noisy waveform and the generation of random
numbers. It includes four exercises.
2 Instrument Communication
This chapter will examine the configuration of GPIB
instruments with a Panel Driver and Direct I/O. ActiveX was
called and the Internet was accessed to integrate equipment
via LAN, RS- 232, and USB communications. This unit
consists of four exercises.
3 Instrument Controls
This chapter will examine how to select and configure an
instrument driver and simulate how to set up and measure
temperature using a thermocouple. It will also demonstrate
how to interact with equipment using direct I/O and how to
set up National Instrument drivers in VEE Pro.
4 DotNet Control and Communications
This chapter uses four dotNET and dotNET control examples
to demonstrate the flexibility of a multitude of dotNET
applications and how to use them to enhance your VEE
applications.
5 Record Manipulation
This chapter will examine techniques for building and
unbuilding records in conjunction with the Get Field and Set
Field Objects. This unit contains four exercises.
