Establishes communication with the instrument and optionally performs an instrument identification query and/or an instrument reset. It also places the instrument in a default state needed for other instrument driver operations. Therefore, call this VI before calling other instrument driver VIs for this instrument. Generally, you need to call the <b>Initialize</b> VI only once at the beginning of an application.

error in (no error) error in can accept error information wired from VIs previously called. Use this information to decide if any functionality should be bypassed in the event of errors from other VIs. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
|
|
status status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
|
|
code code is the error or warning code. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |
|
|
source source describes the origin of the error or warning. Right-click the error in control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |

VISA resource name Specifies which instrument to use. Instruments that are powered on and connected to your computer are visible in the VISA resource name pull-down menu. Select the resource name from the VISA resource name pull-down menu. If your instrument does not appear in this list, enter the instrument descriptor using the following format: Interface Type[board index]::Address::INSTR. Examples: GPIB: GPIB::22::INSTR, GPIB board 0, primary address 22 Serial: COM1 TCP/IP Instr: TCPIP::10.0.32.48::INSTR TCP/IP Socket: TCPIP::10.0.32.45::3800::SOCKET USB Instr: Selectable from VISA Resource Name pull-down menu USB Raw: You must first link VISA to non-USBTMC instruments by using the VISA Driver Development Wizard VISA Alias: "SampleInstr" - Alias names are configured in MAX Refer to the LabVIEW Help for more information about specifying a VISA resource name. |

error out error out passes error or warning information out of a VI to be used by other VIs.
Right-click the error out control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |

status status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. Right-click the error out control on the front panel and select Explain Error or Explain Warning from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. |

VISA resource name out A copy of the reference to the instrument in use. The reference to the resource name is created in the Initialize VI. Wire the VISA resource name out terminal of the Initialize VI to subsequent VISA resource name input terminals. You chain instrument driver VIs together by wiring the VISA resource name out terminal to subsequent VISA resource name input terminals. |
