To use the Resource Manager

To use the Resource Manager

The Resource Manager is a program from your hardware interface manufacturer. It looks at the VXI mainframe to determine what modules are installed. You need to run it every time you power up. If you get the message: "VISUCCESS_DEVICE_NPRESENT" then run the Resource Manager.

Before running the Agilent E1439 software make sure that your hardware is configured correctly and that the Resource Manager runs successfully. Before using your measurement system, you must set up all of its devices, including setting their addresses and local bus locations. No two devices can have the same address. Usually addresses 0 and 1 are taken by the Resource Manager and are not available.

For more information about the Resource Manager, see the documentation with your hardware interface.

Most Resource Managers will recognize the manufacturer and model number of the

Agilent E1439 but if your interface requires that you enter this information manually, use the following:

Manufacturer number: 4095 (Hex FFF)

Model number: 699 (Hex 2BB)
