SECTION 4 - PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Using the IVI Driver
The IVI driver assigns names to each channel or node. To program the 40-562B BRIC matrix from the IVI driver it
is necessary to know the name of these channels. The channel naming for the matrix is shown in Table 4.2 and the
channel naming for the isolation switches is shown in Table 4.3.
