Name

Description

Acquisition

Interface to methods and properties controlling measurement acquisition state.

Channels

Channels interface. Provides access specific to individual channels. For the purposes of this driver, a channel is either an actual Boonton USB power meter that is being used as a virtual measuremnt channel, or a memory channel. In the case of the 4540 series, channels are internal to the power meter. Timebase (horizontal) controls are common to all channels.

DriverOperation

Pointer to the IIviDriverOperation interface (Inherited from IIviDriver.)

Identity

Pointer to the IIviDriverIdentity interface (Inherited from IIviDriver.)

Initialized

Initialized is True between a successful call to the Initialize method and a successful call to the Close method, and False at all other times. (Inherited from IIviDriver.)

Marker

Provides poperties for setting and retrieving marker position.

ReadBufferSize

Sets or gets the size of the SCPI read buffer in bytes.

System

Interface to system-wide setings.

Trigger

The Trigger interface provides properties to control synchronization of data acquisition with external events.

Utility

Pointer to the IIviDriverUtility interface (Inherited from IIviDriver.)

WriteBufferSize

Sets or gets the size of the SCPI write buffer in bytes.

Name

Description

Close

Closes the I/O session to the instrument. Driver methods and properties that access the instrument are not accessible after Close is called. (Inherited from IIviDriver.)

FindResources

Returns a delimited string of available resources. These strings can be used in the initialize function to open a session to an instrument.

GetTimeOut

Returns the time out value for I/O in milliseconds.

Initialize

Opens the I/O session to the instrument. Driver methods and properties that access the instrument are only accessible after Initialize is called. Initialize optionally performs a Reset and queries the instrument to validate the instrument model. (Inherited from IIviDriver.)

ReadSCPI

Read a SCPI string response from the instrument.

ReadSCPIBytes

Read a SCPI byte array response from the instrument.

SendSCPIBytes

Send a SCPI command as a byte array.

SendSCPICommand

Send a SCPI command to the instrument.

SetTimeOut

Sets the time out in milliseconds for I/O.
