Trouble with Agilent 4156C and older driver

$

Hey,

 

I am having issues with our Agilent 4156C. As I am quite new to LabVIEW I asked around in my institute and there is in deed another group working with a 4155C, doing similar measurements as I wish to do with our 4156C.

 

As far as I know the 4155C and 4156C are equivalent a part from the precision and use the same drivers. So I asked the other group for their VIs and drivers. But I noticed that they use the HP415XA driver, which does officially not support either of our devices and as far as I have tested it does really not work.

 

How is it possible that they run their 4155C machine with this 415XA driver? Is there a way to do the same with my 4156C? The people that once got it running unfortunately left the group..

 

I know I could use the new drivers but then I would need to change the VI as well, which I want to use.

 

And is there an easy to understand step-by-step guide how to use an Agilent/Keysight device in LabVIEW starting from zero?

 

Thanks in advance!

Philipp
