Run-Time Configuration of IVI Instrument Drivers

Primary Software: Instrument Drivers/IVI>>IVI Compliance Package
Primary Software Version: 2.2
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem: Is there is an API for run-time configuration of IVI drivers? I would like to configure IVI instrument drivers under MAX with a CVI application.

Solution:
The IVI Foundation has defined a C API to programmatically access and modify any IVI Configuration Store file. This API is defined in the IVI-3.5 IVI Configuration Server specification and is installed as part of the NI IVI Compliance Package 2.x and later. The relevant files are installed in the C:\Program Files\IVI\ or C:\Program Files\IVI Foundation\directories. These are IviConfigurationServer.h, IviConfigurationServer.lib, and IviConfigurationServerCAPI.dll.
Attached is a simple example on how to programmatically access the configuration file.
