NOTE
• An instrument object named Scope using the driver file hp54504a@(NOT LIVE) is
now in your list of available instruments. It does not have a bus address specified
because it is NOT LIVE at this time.
• You can develop your program in this mode and add an address later when there is
a live instrument.
• If you already have an Agilent instrument available, then refer to the Owner's
Manual for the instrument and the Agilent I/O Libraries Suite Manual.
