Data Translation Measurement Instruments Driver

Using Data Translation Measurement Instruments with MATLAB through IVI-COM

You are now following this Submission

Using the MATLAB® Instrument Control Toolbox™, you can access the functions of Data Translation's measurement instruments (TEMPpoint, VOLTpoint, and MEASURpoint). The Instrument Control Toolbox communicates with DT measurement instruments through a MATLAB driver to the instruments IVI-COM driver. Both USB and Ethernet (LXI) versions of the TEMPpoint instrument are supported.

To use the MATLAB Instrument Control Toolbox with a DT measurement instrument, you need to install the IVI-COM driver (DtxMeasuremnt) provided by Data Translation. The DtxMeasurement IVI-COM driver is used with the MATLAB driver (DtxMeasurement_DtxMeasurement.mdd). There is also an example program that illustrates how to use MATLAB with the IVI-COM driver.
