Generic Instrument Drivers Supported

This release includes support for generic instrument drivers that allow Instrument Control Toolbox™ software to communicate with devices or software that do not use industry-standard drivers or protocols.

For more information, see Using Generic Instrument Drivers in the Instrument Control Toolbox documentation.

LeCroy® Driver

This release includes support for LeCroy® instrument drivers.

Several drivers ship with the toolbox. You can find these drivers by looking in the directory

matlabroot\toolbox\instrument\instrument\drivers

where matlabroot is the MATLAB® installation directory, as seen when you type

matlabroot

in the MATLAB Command Window.

Many other drivers are available on the MathWorks Web site at

http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange

including drivers specifically for Instrument Control Toolbox software under the Test and Measurement category.

Agilent® Instrument Simulations

Instrument Control Toolbox software includes simulations of the Agilent® 33120a function generator and Agilent e3648 DC power supply. These simulations are available as instrument drivers.

You can see the drivers shipped with the release by looking in the directory

matlabroot\toolbox\instrument\instrument\drivers

where matlabroot is the MATLAB installation directory, as seen when you type

matlabroot

in the MATLAB Command Window.

The Agilent simulations are provided by the drivers
