The EX2500A driver was written to be used with Agilent

®

VISA and, therefore, requires this 

software to be installed to function properly. Two software installation paths should be considered 
by users when installing the required EX2500A software: 

•

 

Use with Agilent VISA software, where Agilent VISA is installed as the primary VISA. 

•

 

Use with existing National Instruments

©

VISA (NI-VISA) software, which requires Agilent 

VISA to be installed as the secondary VISA and NI-VISA to be configured properly to 
support Agilent VISA. 

NOTE 

The screenshots provided in this section were captured on a Windows

 system using specific 

VISA (Virtual Instrument Software Architecture) installations. As such, it is possible that the 
images provided in this guide may not be identical to the images seen during a specific 
installation.

EQUIREMENTS

 

In order to work properly in a test system, the EX2500A requires Agilent VISA to be installed on 
the host PC. Agilent VISA may be installed as either the primary VISA, or may be installed 
secondary to NI-VISA. The EX2500A is compatible with the following VISA software revisions: 

1)

 

Agilent VISA Revision 14.2 or later 

2)

 

NI-VISA Revision 2.6 or later for guaranteed operation (VTI Instruments Corp., however, 
recommends using revision 3.4 or later) 

Agilent VISA as Primary VISA Installation Path 

If Agilent VISA revision 14.2 or later is installed on the PC that will be connected to the 
EX2500A, go to page 30. If a different version of Agilent VISA is installed on the host PC, go to 
page  26  to install revision 14.2. It is recommended that previous versions of Agilent VISA be 
removed before installing revision 14.2. 

Agilent VISA as Secondary VISA Installation Path 

If NI-VISA revision 2.6 or later is installed on the host PC, go to page  39. If the version of 
NI-VISA installed on the host PC is lower than revision 2.6, please install an appropriate version 
of NI-VISA and then go to page 39.
