Reconfigure GPIB Interface Settings

In Measurement & Automation Explorer, you can view GPIB hardware information and change default settings for new board handles.

Note The default settings are not applied to new board handles until all open handles are closed. Otherwise, the current board configuration continues to be used.

In most cases, you should change only the interface ID of your GPIB hardware. Applications that use ibconfig calls instead of customized default settings are more portable, because proper execution does not rely on a specific configuration.

For more information about GPIB interface settings, refer to the context help window in Measurement & Automation Explorer.
