Before Using the GPIB Examples

If the Keysight GPIB interface card is used, the Keysight VISA library should be
installed along with Keysight SICL. If the National Instruments PCI–GPIB
interface card is used, the NI–VISA library along with the NI–488.2 library
should be installed. Refer to
the documentation for your GPIB interface card for details.
HP Basic addresses the signal generator at 719. The GPIB card is addressed at
7 and the signal generator at 19. The GPIB address designator for other
libraries is typically GPIB0 or GPIB1.
The following sections contain HP Basic and C++ lines of programming
