Where can I find LabView examples for the ESG, PSG, MXG, and E8663B signal generators?

This is an example of the IVI-COM driver used in LabView. Use this link from National Instruments to download and install the LabView driver for your signal generator model: www.ni.com/idnet

Then locate the example in the following directory of your PC:
C:\Program Files\IVI\Drivers\KeysightRFSigGen\Examples\Labview\KeysightRFSigGenIviDriver.vi

The driver is set up to use LAN, but you need to enter your hostname on the block diagram. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Load the example from C:\Program Files\IVI\Drivers\KeysightRFSigGen\Examples\Labview\KeysightRFSigGenIviDriver.vi
  2. Click on Window, Show Block Diagram
  3. Change the address from "TCPIP::::INSTR" to your hostname.
  4. Change "simulate=true" to "simulate=false"
  5. Run

Alternatively, if you want to use GPIB, follow these steps:

  1. Connect the instrument to GPIB and set the GPIB address to 18.
  2. Load the example from C:\Program Files\IVI\Drivers\KeysightRFSigGen\Examples\Labview\KeysightRFSigGenIviDriver.vi
  3. Click on Window, Show Block Diagram
  4. Change the address from "TCPIP::::INSTR" to "GPIB0::18:INSTR"
  5. Change "simulate=true" to "simulate=false"
  6. Run
