When the main screen appears, you will see a map of the sys- tem connections in the Instrument I/O on this PC pane (also called the “Explorer Pane”). At this time, the Connection Expert window should refresh. If it does not refresh automati- cally, click Refresh All. The 82357B will appear in the Connec- tion Expert explorer as a USB/GPIB interface as shown below.

Once you see the 82357B displayed in the Connection Expert, this means that it has been configured and can be used for pro- gramming. At this time, only the green READY LED should remain illuminated. To edit the configuration settings, click Change Properties... in the detail pane on the right side of the window.
