Getting Started with the Agilent E1439
To use the Resource Manager
To use the Resource Manager
The Resource Manager is a program from your hardware interface manufacturer. It looks at the
VXI mainframe to determine what modules are installed. You need to run it every time you power
up. If you get the message: "VISUCCESS_DEVICE_NPRESENT" then run the Resource
Manager.
Before running the Agilent E1439 software make sure that your hardware is configured correctly
and that the Resource Manager runs successfully. Before using your measurement system, you
must set up all of its devices, including setting their addresses and local bus locations. No two
devices can have the same address. Usually addresses 0 and 1 are taken by the Resource Manager
and are not available.
For more information about the Resource Manager, see the documentation with your hardware
interface.
Note
Most Resource Managers will recognize the manufacturer and model number of the
Agilent E1439 but if your interface requires that you enter this information manually, use the
following:
Manufacturer number: 4095 (Hex FFF)
Model number: 699 (Hex 2BB)
