Configuring a Driver Session

A driver session defines a set of properties for use by IVI instrument driver software modules, such as initial configurable settings for attributes, virtual name mappings, simulation settings, and so on. Multiple driver sessions can exist for each instrument driver software module.

To configure the properties of a new driver session or to modify an existing driver session, complete the following steps:

1. Click the appropriate driver session in the MAX configuration tree.
2. Enter the appropriate configuration information on one or more of the following tabs: General, Hardware, Software, Virtual Names, Initial Settings.
3. After you complete your configuration, click Save IVI Configuration at the top of the configuration view to save the new driver session configuration. If you decide not to save your changes, click Revert to revert to the previous configuration.
