Requirements: View
This program demonstrates how to use VISA 3.0 and later to programmatically detect the slot in which a PXI instrument is installed. Because this method uses the Slot property in VISA 3.0, it is much easier and smaller than previous methods. This program will only work with PXI instruments which support VISA. Additionally, this program will only work with VISA 3.0 and later. For information on other methods of performing programmatic slot detection, please review the links below.
