Hello,
I have a Keithley 2000 DMM and I would like to setup this up with Labview to read measurements and simply display them on the screen. The only interface I have to use is Serial (i.e. COM1). Does anyone have something or an idea of how to do this? Possibly IVI driver? Thanks for your quick response.

Hi
Be carefull old k2000 dmm's only work correctly below or at 19200 baud,
They genrate errors above that.

I strongly recommend to use the native labview drivers. I like the IVI idea but not all implemenattions are perfect and bug fixing is more difficult.especially some older IVI drivers are having weird installations and require a lot of dll's
The best drivers can be expected with the new labview library concept in LV8. But it can take some time before all drivers are moved to such a project.(ps a labview lib is surely not a .llb)
