Hi all - I'm new to NI and GPIB to USB adapters. I have the GPIB-USB-US from NI and an old HP8566 spectrum analyzer. I also have Measurement and automation explorer installed on my PC, and I'm trying to figure out how to do a few things:
1. configure the SA settings from the PC: start/stop freq, res BW, ref level, etc.
2. Once a sweep is completed, is it possible to get the data from the 8566 to my PC?
I'm a relatively experienced HW guy, but an absolute newb at running NI software and talking to my instruments through them.
Are there some basic tutorials I can read through somewhere?
Thanks!
Geoff
