Configuring I/O Interfaces

Configuring GPIB Interfaces

Since unique names have been assigned by IO Config, you can use the

VISA viOpen command to open the I/O paths to the GPIB instruments as

shown in the above figure. Or, you can use the SICL iopen command to

open the I/O paths shown. See the Agilent VISA User’s Guide for details

on VISA commands. See the Agilent SICL User’s Guide for Windows for

details on SICL commands.
