53131A, 53132A, 53181A VISA and VBNET Measurement Example Program
This program shows three different ways to make measurements for the 53131A, 53132A,
and 53181A Counters. It uses the 'MEASure?', 'CONFigure and 'READ?', and
'CONFigure', 'INITiate', and 'FETCh' commands. The returned measurements are output
in a list box.
The program requires that VISA is installed in your computer. VISA comes with the
Agilent I/O Library. A modified version of visa32.bas is included in the project
as file visa32.vb.
For VISA to work correctly, the visa32.bas file was modified, as shown in comments
in the the file. Also, the "Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.dll" has to be
referenced in the project sincd VISA needs some older Visual Basic cpabilities,
especially in setting the size of string variables.
The program was developed in Microsoft(r) Visual Basic .NET version 7.0
