NI-VISA HiSLIP support

[Makoto]

I have been waiting NI-VISA being updated for adding LXI HiSLIP support.

I am developping new LXI products that support HiSLIP and testing with the latest Agilent IO and KI-VISA libraries to increase interoperability, but currently unable to try NI-VISA due to lack of HiSLIP.

I would like to know when the new NI-VISA (probably 5.0.4?) supporting HiSLIP will be released.

Hi,

This is Tatsumi Fujieda.
Thank you for using National Instrument product.

HiSLIP support is one of the features being added to next version of VISA. However, the next version of VISA is not yet released (5.0.3 is the current version) and I can't tell when is the release date.
I apologize we don't generally share information about prereleased software, but I would not expect release date to be too long.

If my answer does not seem to make sense, please send me the email.

regards,

Tatsumi Fujieda

Hi Makoto,

have you had already the chance to test the latest version of NI-VISA (5.1.2) and their HiSLIP implementation in comparison to the Agilent IO Libraries?
