Search VISA TCP/IP Resource in LabVIEW

[ilovekitchen]

I have a instrument that connecting to the computer through TCP/IP.

Sometimes I need to change the instrument IP and then I have to update the instrument resource in MAX manually.

So I want to know is there any method to search available TCP/IP instruments in LabVIEW?

There is no built-in method for doing that as there's no protocol for it. Even MAX essentially does a local subnet search by attempting connections to devices one address at a time. Within LabVIEW the VISA Find Resource function will return the list of instruments that were defined in MAX.

I've got it.

Thanks very much!
