a If the IO icon is displayed, click the icon and select About

Agilent IO Control to display the version. The version
must be 15.0 or greater.

b If the IO icon is not displayed, a version of the IO Libraries

Suite may still be installed. To verify this, check for
Agilent Connection Expert in the Start menu or the Start
Screen (Windows 8).

c If found, launch the Agilent Connection Expert and select

View > Agilent IO Control to place a check mark next to
the Agilent IO Control selection.

d If Agilent Connection Expert is not found in the Start

menu or the Start Screen (Windows 8), no version of
Agilent IO Libraries is installed. In this case, or if the
installed version is not 15.0 or greater, you must install
the newer version (see Step 2).

2 Install Agilent IO Libraries Suite (as required). If version

15.0 or greater of the Agilent IO Libraries is not installed on
your PC, install the IO Libraries Suite. Otherwise, go to

Check IO Control operation

When the Agilent IO Libraries Suite is installed, an IO Control
is created. When the IO Control is active, it is displayed as an
IO icon on the Windows taskbar notification area. If the IO
Control is deactivated, SICL/VISA applications that are
running with the 82350B will be unable to open sessions.

By default, the IO Control is always active after the Agilent IO
Libraries Suite is installed and the IO icon is displayed.
However, there may be times when the IO Control is active and
the IO icon is not displayed. There are two ways that the IO
icon can be hidden:

• Hide Agilent IO Control. Click the IO icon and and select

Hide Agilent IO Control from the drop down menu.
Alternately, you can uncheck View | Agilent IO Control in
Connection Expert. This will hide the IO icon, but will not
deactivate the IO Control.

• Click Exit. Click the IO icon and select Exit from the drop

down menu. A dialog box explaining the consequences of
removing the IO appears. Click Yes to hide the IO icon and
deactivates the IO Control.
