9.9  Sample Programs

150

These programs can be created using Visual Basic 5.0, 6.0 or Visual Basic 2005 (p. 160).
Visual Basic is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation.

These sample programs are created with Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0 and 6.0.

The following are used for communication:
For RS-232C communication: MSComm from Visual Basic Professional 
For GP-IB communication: National Instruments GP-IB Board, Driver and Module for Visual Basic

During communications, the terminator setting is supposed to be as follows:
RS-232C: CR+LF
GP-IB: LF

RS-232C Communications

(Using Microsoft Visual Basic Professional MSComm)

Simple Resistance Measurement

Imports measured values 10 times, and saves measurements in a text file.
