CALIBRATION USING IVI DRIVER

panel left and right arrow keys. The left double arrow button on the VISA panel is

Calibration of the BHK-MG 200W Power Supply is performed using SCPI commands imple-
mented through the Instrument driver. The driver provides a graphical interface with informa-
tional displays and prompts which lead you through the calibration of the Power Supply. This IVI
compliant driver works with many GPIB cards from suppliers like National Instruments and
Hewlett-Packard.
This driver requires a helper application (visa32.dll) to be installed on the computer being used.
VISA uses resource strings (see Table 4-1) to address the unit.

SETUP
1. The following calibration procedure uses a calibration panel which is part of the IVI driver for
the BHK-MG 200W which can be downloaded from the Kepco website at:
www.kepcopower.com/drivers.htm
Unzip the files and double-click on setup.exe to install the driver in
\Program Files\KepcodcPower\bhk\
2. After the program is installed, double click on
\Program Files\KepcodcPower\bhk\KepcoControlPanel.exe
to run the program. Two windows appear: the VISA Resource Descriptor Input panel (Figure
4-1) and the Main Control panel (with display blank) as shown in Figure 4-2.
3. Enter the VISA resource descriptor of the BHK-MG unit into the VISA Resource Descriptor
Input panel (Figure 4-1), or leave blank to use the default setting (GPIB::6), then click OK.
