IVI™ Library Help
July 2022
This help file describes the functions in the IVI engine, IVI Status Codes, and error reporting information. Use the IVI engine to create VXIplug&play instrument drivers with advanced features, such as state caching, simulation, and compatibility with generic instrument classes. Refer to the IVI Library Function Tree or click the function name in the Alphabetical List of IVI Functions section in the Contents tab for more information about each function.
The IVI Instrument Driver Wizard supplements the library, automatically creating the skeleton of an IVI driver that includes source code and function panels. In LabWindows/CVI, select Tools»IVI Development»Create IVI Specific Driver to start the IVI Instrument Driver Wizard. The LabWindows/CVI Fundamentals»Instrument Drivers»Building IVI Instrument Drivers section of the LabWindows/CVI Help describes guidelines for writing an IVI instrument driver.
