VISA COM: 34970A Thermocouple Measurement Read Me

34970A VISA Com and VB60 Measurement Example Program

This program sets the 34970A for 2 simple scans that make both DCV and type J 
thermocouple temperature measurements. The program also checks the instrument and 
module identification to make sure there is communication between the 34970A and the 
computer, and the correct module is installed. The returned data is entered into a 
list box.

This program uses the Agilent VISACom COM objects to program the instrument.
To use the IO object in another Visual Basic project, set the reference to
include the appropriate libraries in the Project/References menu:
"VISA COM 1.0 Type Library", corresponds to VISACOM.tlb

"VISA COM 488.2 Formatted I/O 1.0", corresponds to the BasicFormattedIO.dll
