The VXI-11 standard specifies a protocol for communication with devices over a network via a
network instrument server. This protocol uses the ONC/RPC (Open Network Computing/Remote
Procedure Call) standard that, in turn, is based on TCP/IP.
Supported ADEs
TekVISA supports these Application Development Environments:
Microsoft C/C++
Microsoft Visual Basic
LabVIEW graphics software using the G language
MATLAB analysis software
Tektronix Toolbar for Word
The Tektronix Toolbar for Word, an add-in to Microsoft Word, lets you capture and graph
oscilloscope data in Microsoft Word 2000 and 2002 documents.
Report Generator
Report Generator, an MS Windows application, lets you create custom reposts displaying your
oscilloscope data. Report Generator enables you to generate and print reports directly from the
oscilloscope. It enhances the application capabilities by simplifying the process of creating and
maintaining reports.
IVI Drivers
IVI drivers conform to specifications produced by the IVI Foundation. Unlike VXI-
plug&play
drivers, they provide a standard interface to different classes of instruments, including
oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. IVI drivers have the ability to simulate instruments,
automatically check ranges, and multithread safety features.
Menu Bar Mode
The menu bar menus provide access to commands that control all of the instrument features and
functions.
When you select a feature setup command, the instrument displays the associated control window
on the lower half of the screen. Each control window provides access to the individual instrument
controls. The display graticule is redrawn to fit in the upper half of the screen.
Some of the control windows appear on the right side of the screen. This allows you to operate the
instrument in full screen mode while accessing the controls in the control window or from the
front panel.
