Before Using VISA*

1

   

For Those Who Use MT1810A

 

 
To use the MX183000A High-Speed Serial Data Test Software (hereafter 
MX183000A), you are required to install National Instruments™ (hereafter 
NI™) NI-VISA™*

2

 on the PC controller. 

 

You need to get the NI-VISA™ Installer yourself. 

The USB memory stick for  MX183000A does not contain 

NI-VISA™ because MT1810A does not include any NI™ 

hardware. 

 

Glossary of Terms: 

*1: VISA: Virtual Instrument Software Architecture 

   I/O software specification for remote control of measuring 

instruments using interfaces such as GPIB, Ethernet, USB, etc. 

*2 :NI-VISA™ 

   World de facto standard I/O software interface developed by NI 

and standardized by the VXI Plug&Play Alliance. 

 

Trademarks:
