3 Easy Ways to Control Instruments Chapter
3 Place the outline of the scope panel and click to place it. The
display should look similar to
Figure 87.
Figure 87 Selecting scope(@(NOT LIVE))
You may now use the panel driver in the program like any other
VEE object.
Adding the Physical Instrument to the Configuration
1 Select I/O ⇒ Instrument Manager..., and highlight scope.
Under Instrument... click Properties.
2 Double- click the Address field to highlight the current entry
and type 709. The 7 in 709 is the logical unit. (If the GPIB
(HP- IB) logical unit is not 7, replace 7 with the actual logical
unit number.) The 9 in 709 is the default address for scopes.
NOTE
In the Instrument Manager, you can often create different types of objects
under Create I/O Object, depending on the type of instrument configured.
For example, if you had chosen Direct I/O rather than Panel Driver for this
exercise, you would get a Direct I/O object with the name scope(@(NOT
LIVE)).VEE also provides a Component Driver, which uses a subset of the
functions provided by a Panel Driver. (For more information, refer to the
VEE Pro Advanced Techniques manual.)
