IO Libraries Revisions: Suite 14.1 and greater

Yes with the introduction of the IO Libraries Suite version 14.1, and continuing with later releases, you can now utilize an Keysight GPIB card or converter with third party vendor software written with NI-488.2. Some specific examples include:

• Electrolines Locator Software
• Yokogawa's software for the Yokogawa PZ4000 and DA100
• Rohde & Schwarz ESPC-K1 software

Simply install the Keysight IO Libraries Suite, plug in the GPIB card or connect the converter, turn on Keysight 488 and use the program as you normally would.

To turn on Keysight 488:

Open Keysight Connection Expert, then click Tools > Keysight 488..., then select the check box labeled Enable Keysight GPIB cards for 488 programs.
