This chapter provides explanations and listings for the example programs that are
included on the “Programming Examples” CD-ROM (part number 08753-10039) that
accompanied this manual. A description of the typical measurement process is also
included in the “Measurement Process” section, starting on page 7-3.
All of the examples on the CD-ROM are provided in HP BASIC, and most are also provided
in Visual C++ and Visual BASIC for use with the provided VXIplug&play driver. See
Chapter 2 , “Introduction to Instrument Control,” for information on using HP BASIC, and
installing and using the VXIplug&play driver.
NOTE “Example 1A: Setting Parameters” on page 7-10 includes program listings for
HP BASIC, Visual C++, and Visual BASIC. These listings are provided for
you to see a comparison of the different programming languages. The rest of
the examples in this manual only include the HP BASIC listing. You can
readily view all of the programs by accessing the CD-ROM that was shipped
with this manual. The programs are in the following three directories on the
CD-ROM:
• \hpbasic (HP BASIC programs)
• \vc (Visual C++ programs)
• \vb (Visual BASIC programs)
