QPX750 Instruction Manual

REMOTE OPERATION

The instrument can be remotely controlled via its USB, LAN or (optional) GPIB interfaces.

9.1

USB Interface

Using the USB interface for remote control requires a Communications Device Class driver on the PC to

provide a virtual COM port instance.
Windows 10 will automatically install a suitable driver. In earlier versions of Windows, a suitable driver

is provided by Microsoft, but it is not installed by default. The data (.INF) file to control the installation

is provided on the website:

www.aimtti.com

If required, unzip the contents of the downloaded USB driver.

NOTE

The same driver is also used by many other instruments from this manufacturer and may

already be known to the PC.

9.1.1

Installing USB driver for the first time

To install the driver for the first time:

•

First switch the unit On.

•

Then connect the USB port to PC.

NOTE

In Windows 10, the driver is automatically installed by the operating system.

The Windows plug and play functions should automatically recognise the attachment of new hardware

to the USB interface and (possibly after searching the internet for some time) prompt for the location

of a suitable driver. Follow the Windows prompts and point to the downloaded driver file named

USB_ARM_VCP_xxx.INF, where xxx is a version number.
In some cases, Windows will not complete this procedure (especially recent versions which search the

internet first, looking for the unique Vendor ID and Product ID), in which case the instrument will show

in Device Manager as “not working properly”. If this happens, select this device, right click, and choose

“update driver software...”, followed by: “browse this computer for driver software...”; then locate the

downloaded .INF file.
Once Windows has installed the device driver it will assign a COM port number to this particular unit.

This number will depend on previous COM port assignments on this PC, and it may be necessary to

use Device Manager to discover it. Each instrument has a unique USB identifier which is remembered

by the system, so it will receive the same COM port number whenever it is attached to the same PC

(regardless of the physical interface socket used), even though the COM port will disappear while the

instrument is disconnected or switched off. Other instruments will receive different COM port

numbers.

NOTE

A different PC will not necessarily assign the same COM port number to a particular

instrument (it depends on the history of installations). Device Manager can be used to

change the assignments given.
