VISA is an industry standard IO library API. It allows the user to send SCPI
commands to instruments and to read instrument data in a variety of formats.
Refer to the VISA Assistant Help menu and the Keysight VISA User’s Manual
(available on Keysight’s website) for more information.
VISA Configuration (Automatic)
1. Run the VISA Assistant program:
Start > All Programs > Keysight IO Libraries Suite > Keysight Connection
Expert > Tools > Visa Assistant >.
2. Click on the interface you want to use for sending commands to the signal
generator.
3. Click the Formatted I/O tab.
4. Select SCPI in the Instr. Lang. section.
You can enter SCPI commands in the text box and send the command using
the viPrintf button.
