Learning GPIB Basics

Learning GPIB Basics

‎02-23-2023 09:03 AM

Hi! I am starting to learn LabVIEW to use GPIB to control a few motors for my research. I have no prior knowledge of LabVIEW or GPIB so I wanted to ask for suggestion of resources from where I can learn the basics of LabVIEW and GPIB. Thank you in advance 🙂

There are links at the top of the LabVIEW forum that you should follow.

 

When dealing with GPIB, I would recommend just getting used to VISA.  VISA abstracts most of the details and it lets you easily change to using Ethernet or serial instead.

 

GPIB is a dying bus, mostly due to cost.  I use Ethernet to communicate with my instruments whenever possible, followed by RS-232 (serial).

This is a great tutorial to get started - VIWeek 2020/Proper way to communicate over serial - LabVIEW Wiki
