The Measurement Studio NI-VISA Visual C++ class library includes

Visual C++ classes that provide an object-oriented interface to the

NI-VISA driver. Use the NI-VISA class library to quickly create

bus-independent and/or bus-specific instrument control applications.

The NI-VISA class library supports I/O operations, locking, event

handling, and interface-specific extensions. With this class library, you

can access the functionality available in NI-VISA for communicating with

message-based and register-based instruments using the following

interfaces:

•GPIB

•PXI

• Serial (RS-232 and RS-485)

•TCP/IP

•USB

• VXI
