Hi, I have a Labview-based measurement application that communicates with a GPIB-equipped mulitmeter. I would like to turn this application into a GPIB instrument itself, so that it can be connected to and run under our test executive. I have not made any LV apps acting as GPIB instruments before so I have some questions for you LV/GPIB experts out there:
Is it a good idea to put another GPIB board into the computer and have the two categories of GPIB comm separated. (these two categories would be 1) the app. talking to the multimeter and 2) the test executive demanding measurements from the app.) Should I instead try to put both these GPIB communications on one GPIB bus? I have read about things like System Controllers and Controllers In Command (CIC). Any advice, examples and tips about where one can read about these things, are welcome!
